The Film Geeks SD and San Diego Italian Film Festival present the classic Spaghetti Western THE BIG GUNDOWN, an unrelenting thriller about a Texas bounty hunter charged with bringing a heinous criminal to justice.
Synopsis
Jonathan Corbett (Lee Van Cleef) is one of the top lawmen in the State of Texas. He’s so good at what he does, that he’s been approached by Brokston (Walter Barnes), a wealthy speculator and power-broker, about running for the United States Senate. But there’s one job that needs doing first which, if Corbett can finish it, will put him in an unchallengeable position — he has to hunt down and capture (dead or alive, with the emphasis on “dead”) Cuchillo Sanchez (Tomas Milian), who’s wanted for assaulting and killing a 12-year-old girl.
