Well that’s no good, is it? I’m far too stupid to learn a second language now! 
(I took German as an option at school when I was thirteen; alas, only three other kids did likewise, and the class was dropped. The only German I’ve picked up since has come from eighties VHS pornography, and I’m not sure much of that will apply in your review. Some, maybe, but not much 
)
Sergio Martino was writer and general organizer on Per 100,000 dollari t’ammazzo a.k.a. Vengeance Is Mine, so in addition to similarities and differences with the first Arizona Colt movie it is also interesting to compare the dramatic upside down sequence with the almost identical one directed by Giovanni Fago three years earlier.

If I were you I’d take a look. If you don’t understand the German, you’ll no doubt get the picture(s) of Rosalba Neri. There are quite a few pics of her actually (the text is mostly about her as well). I wouldn’t label them as German pornography, but they’re interesting study material nevertheless.

Actually, it is pornography, disguised as intellectual discourse – a strategy I borrowed from Andrzej Żuławski et al.
Oh boy! German pornographic movies, a filmic anaphrodisiac if there ever was one. The dialogue alone could spoil your love life for weeks.
Curiously, the only actors who appear in both Arizona (Colt) movies are Roberto Camardiel and Rosalba Neri. In Arizona Colt as well as in Arizona si scatenò … e li fece fuori tutti!, Neri’s respective character meets a violent death. – By the way, how would you translate the sequel’s title? “Arizona let off steam … and rubbed them all out!”?
Staying rather close to the original, i’d say:
Arizona broke loose … and kicked them all out
But I guess the meaning is something like:
Arizona went on a rampage … and sent them all to hell

There are also José Manuel Martín and brief appearances in both movies for the supposed Alberigo Donadeo (in my opinion we can be 100% sure of his identity only after finding him in the 1966 movie Testadirapa too).
Something like
Arizona got out of control… and took them all out!
In generale, scatenarsi non è necessariamente collegato alla rabbia. Per esempio, un calciatore si scatena e segna tre gol in dieci minuti

“Unchain, unleash”
In relation to footbal, we would express exactly the same idea in Dutch: we would say that the player is ‘ontketend’ (keten = catena, ‘ont’ expresses the same idea as the ‘s’). But the verb ontketenen is not reflexive in Dutch
Yes, the same in German: entfesseln.
Thanks, Martín must have slipped my attention. But who is Alberigo Donadeo? IMDb.com credits him with 87 film roles or at least appearances.
Apparently this guy. yes, a familiar face (like many others):
Yes, here is a second pic from Sentenza di morte (the above one is from Preparati la bara)
Hey ho, let’s go Donadeo spotting! Should be easy: sinister-looking bearded guy, assumedly lurking around somewhere in the background.
Still can’t get over this theme tune…
Good lord almighty.

He’s in that film, so we have the definitive confirmation.

Rejoyce, this movie’s page in the SWDb has also received the upgrade to the new layout. Please do have a look, let us know of any corrections or additions. Maybe you have texts, links, info or even pictures to add.
I just watched this one again.
If someone could update the main page: Arizona si scatenò… e li fece fuori tutti
At least some of the “filming location” was set at Elios Film Studios
Thanks,

I mostly agree with this sentiment. Anthony Steffen was an odd choice for a replacement to the much more charismatic Giuliano Gemma. I liked the film alright, Aldo Sambrell is a great villain as always and it was nice they brought back Roberto Camardiel.
