George Benton returns from school to his brother Jonathan's farm as a doctor and marries his fiancé Lory, but happiness doesn't last long. The Fargas brothers provide a bloodbath at the ranch and are able to divert suspicion from themselves onto a gang of passing outlaws, but one of the family has survived the massacre and knows who the actual killers are.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Garrone shot this back-to-back with 'Django the Bastard' using the same ranch locations and probably the same lunch breaks.
The 'returning doctor' trope here directly lifts from American westerns, but adds that peculiar Italian cynicism where professionals are always corruptible.
