Alex De la Iglesia is an excellent Spaniard director. He got much success as "Acción Mutante" " El Dia de la Bestia", " Perlita Durango" and ¨La Comunidad¨, among others. Here deals a homage to Spaghetti western. Sancho Gracia who made pretty western during the 60s and 70s, plays an old man who brings back to life a village that the nasties want its selling to speculators.
Sancho Gracia , his friends and the grandson must fight against the polices and baddies to obtain their purports. The final showdown between Sancho Gracia and Angel De Andrés López is overwhelming and exciting . In the film there are comedy, tongue and cheek, humor, action, drama and is very entertaining . Direction is rightly made, cinematography by Flavio Labiano and Roque Baños' musical score are breathtaking though remakes to Ennio Morricone. Rating: 6,5/10 Good. Well worth seeing.
