"Adio's Sabata"
-Yul Brynner
Master gunslinger Sabata helps some Mexican revolutionaries steal a wagonload of gold.
The "imitation" Sabata is IMO a terrific western adventure, much better then the official sequel "Return Of Sabata"
For those who don't know, this film was not originally going to be a Sabata film. It was originally going to be titled Indio Black, but the title was changed to cash in on the original Sabata film.
Lee Van Cleef was unavailable to play Sabata, as he was committed to making The Magnificent Seven Ride! (1972) where he played Chris Adams, a role made famous by Yul Brynner in The Magnificent Seven (1960). Instead, Brynner signed on for the role of Sabata, a role made famous by Van Cleef.
