You may already be aware, but that double feature has changed. It will now feature two Peter Lee Lawrence films, KILLER CALIBER 32 and KILLER ADIOS, instead.
I like THE PRICE OF DEATH, but I think having the two āKillerā films together makes for a more logical double feature, in some ways.
Mostly because I canāt see the character as played by Garko to be the same one played by PLL.

If you look for the italian movie magazine NOCTURNO, issue #86 in the WWW there is an announcement on an article called āWESTERN EROTICO - IL VENDITORE DI MORTE & UN DOLLARO DI FUOCOā.
Also in some of the italian forums are some rumours about erotic and porno scenes on āIl venditore di moreāā¦
More or less an average SW which canāt decide if it wants to take itself serious or not. Itās a simple detective film with a few superfluous giallo elements. Itās also a social farce with several stupid comedy elements. And somehow itās also supposed to be western.
The solution to the crime āmysteryā is like so often predictable, as is the solution after the solution. But still the story has also in-between a few nice turns which could keep the interest of the viewer.
Compared to Shango for me the better release. I was solid entertainment whithout too many boring scenes. I only used the ff-button once, when the gold diggers had their fight, but I dislike fights in general. The nocturnal chases round the village ending in front of the shed were another weak point.
Director Palli had written the screenplay for Killer calibro 32, from which he revived the character of Silver for The Price of Death. Only now with Gianni Garko in the lead Silver comes closer to the more popular Sartana. The film tells a murder mystery (well in fact two) with the usual foreseeable solutions, intersperses a few giallo elements and garnishes it at the oddest moments with some superfluous brawls in the stupidest slapstick manner. SW fast food which surprisingly doesnāt taste too bad.
