Four of the apocalypse(1975)

a card shark(fabio testi), a pregnent hooker, a crazy black chap, and a town drunk all get out of jail and end up wandering in the desert. and fall into the clutches of the insane Chaco(Thomas Milian).

not really a massive fan of westerns, apart from the odd exception of clint Eastwood and a bit of charles Bronson. but one directed by Lucio Fulci is well worth a look and is definately different. with some sadistic scenes of torture, murder, rape, and even a bit of cannabilism.
acting is pretty good as well despite some rubbish dubbing, with great chemistry between testi and Lynne Frederick, who stars as bonny the hooker.
And Fulci regular Sergio Salvati provides some nice cinematography too. just a shame about the score which was a bit crap i thought.

But definately a solid 78 out of a 100 for this Italian western.
