A white boy who's parents were murdered and sister abducted sets out to avenges his parents death and rescue his sister. After wiping out half the gang by himself he teams up with a black miner the same gang robbed of his gold.
Before joining up with Isaac (Jim Brown) the miner, Tom Thurston (Leif Garrett) finds a different method of killing each of the outlaws (shovel to the head, venomous snake in saddle bag, lynching, etc). Most of the rest the gang falls to Isaac's sticks of dynamite before Tom comes face to face with McClain (Lee Van Cleef) leader of the gang.
Lee Van Cleef is looking old but still manages to be mean and nasty. I liked Leif Garrett better in this than any of the other things I've seen him in. As usual the people who reviewed the movie at IMdb are too harsh. I enjoyed it, though I liked the first part of the film best, before the boy got with the gold miner. The movie was more interesting when it was just the boy knocking off the gang one at a time, using a different method each time. When he teams up with Isaac it becomes just another western with a predictable ending.
