Synopsis by Robert Firsching

This spaghetti western from director Giovanni Grimaldi stars cult favorite Robert Woods as Starblack, a swashbuckling hero who saves a Western town from the chicanery of a corrupt banker (Franco Lantieri). Beautiful Elga Andersen is Caroline, the requisite love interest, and Renato Rossini co-stars with Jane Tilden and Andrea Scotti. Grimaldi's direction is assured, but this variation on the Robin Hood legend does not compare to his wonderful All'Ombra di una Colt (1965), despite nice camera work by Guglielmo Mancori and a stirring score by Benedetto Ghiglia.
