A wagon load of convicts on their way to prison is being escorted through the mountains by a cavalry troop. They are attacked by a bandit gang, and only a sergeant, his beautiful young daughter and an assortment of seven sadistic, murderous prisoners survive, and they are left without horses or a wagon. The sergeant must find a way to get his prisoners to their destination while protecting his daughter, watching out for the still pursuing bandits and trying to determine which one of the prisoners was the man who raped and murdered his wife.

Trying to decide if this was of an influence on THE HATEFUL EIGHT or THE REVENANT. Pretty cool flick although marred by the seriously shitty transfer available on Amazon Instant. Definitely one I’d love to see again in a much better presentation. Lots of such going on here that requires a better quality viewing. The crappy transfer is a distraction softens the edge on much of the brutality on display.
One thing is certain; this had to be a bitch to film in snowy mountains in Spain. All of it just looks harsh and unpleasant.
