The film was originally going to be entitled ''Indio Black'', but the title was changed after the first ''[[Sabata (film)|Sabata]]'' film proved successful and had inspired many imitators. Van Cleef had been offered the starring role in the film, but had to decline because he was committed to ''[[The Magnificent Seven Ride]]'' in the role of Chris Adams, which Brynner had made famous in ''[[The Magnificent Seven]]''.

==Sabata's rifle==

Sabata carries a sawed off lever action rifle with a side-loading magazine containing seven .30/30 Remington rimfire cartridges...and one cigar. Guns based on a horizontal loading slide magazine were called [[harmonica gun]]s (the magazine resembling a harmonica). There is no record of a lever action harmonica magazine rifle, so this gun was almost certainly a prop creation. Harmonica guns generally required a cocking action plus a manual advancement of the magazine, hence the lever action in this gun to cock it and the visible position of Brynner's hand to advance the magazine to the next cartridge position.

Reception

[edit]

Tom Milne of the Monthly Film Bulletin reviewed a dubbed version of the film in 1973.[5] Milne found that "the rather routine proceedings are enlivened from time to time by ingeniously macabre details like the model ship firing from all guns with which Skimmel executes informers, or the "flamenco of death" (spurs glittering ominously on drumming heels) with which Gitano announced the end of enemies of the revolution."[5] Milne commented on "it is a pity that so much of the action is clogged up by that old stand-by of the Italian Western-extras falling off roofs in graceful death-falls. This time the supply of cannon-fodder destined for identical deaths is apparently inexhaustible."[5]
