Deadly Trackers (Italian: La lunga cavalcata della vendetta, lit.'The long ride of vengeance') is a 1972 Italian Spaghetti Western film co-produced, co-written and directed by Tanio Boccia under the pseudonym Amerigo Anton. It stars Richard Harrison and Anita Ekberg.

Production

[edit | edit source]

The film was produced by European United Pictures.[1] It was shot at the De Laurentiis Studios in Rome.[2] Its plot is largely based on Anthony Dawson's Vengeance, including large chunks of its original dialogue.[2] It is the penultimate film of Boccia, and his last western.[1]

Reception

[edit | edit source]

Italian critic Davide Pulici considered the film as very ordinary in terms of story, but praised its flashback structure, deemed as very original for the time.[2] Marco Giusti called the film 'very confusing'.[1] Paolo Mereghetti described it as a very predictable revenge story, with 'interminable horseback-riding scenes and mild bursts of Grand Guignol'.[3]
