Sartana Mata para não Morrer

As in most Spaghetti-Western also this Movie has a good Music Score. In my eyes this is one of the best aspects of Santana kills them all. The Movie has his funny moments, but I will never call it excellent. In 1970the Spaghetti-Western started to be weaker and wanted to be comedies, but in a childish way. This is very disturbing for today, when someone makes a cynical joke and in the next moment he is killing brutally a man. These guys are not heroes like in most of the Action Movies. They are Antiheros, Outlaws who shares no mercy to their victims. Sartana and his friend and almost everybody in this movie are typical for this genre. "Sartanakills them all", reminds on most of the Italian Western but has nothing to do with the Sartana Movies with Gianni Garko. The Director was Rafael Romero Marchent who did a lot of other Spaghetti Western,Spanish Horror Movies and Thrillers. One of the Screenwriters is Joaquin Luis Romero Marchent, who also directed a lot of western and made one of the most violent spaghetti-western ever: Cut Throats Nine (Condenados a vivir).

Gianni Garko is playing Sartana (or Santana) together with his "Tuco" like buddy Marco (William Bogart). They are two bandits who are searching for 100.000 Dollars and they are killing everybody who disturbs them on their way. Only some of the beautiful ladies have the luck to survive. One of them is Maria (Cristina Josani) a widow who wants to own a saloon once and also crosses the way (and the feelings) of Sartana and Marco. All the other men, deputies, bandits are shot or get killed brutally on several ways, but always with some jokes. So Sartana kills them all is Violence mixed with Humor.

I wouldn't call it a disappointment, but with a better script this movie could be better either. The music is pretty good, but the pictures and the photography are average. If you like to see violence and Gianni Garko in Action it will not be a waste of time. Don't expect too much (which you never should as Spaghetti-Western fan) and you will have some enjoyable moments.
