Django Defies Sartana (Italian: Django sfida Santana) is a 1970 Italian Spaghetti Western directed by Pasquale Squitieri (as William Redford).[1] The film is also known as Django Against Sartana.[2][3] or Django Challenges Sartana.[4]
Plot
Django is looking for the murderer of his brother Steve, whom he has found hanged near Tombstone. Django first believes Sartana, a rival bounty hunter, is the murderer and goes after him. However, after a fight, Django understands that he was wrong and both men decide to find the real culprit together.
An Italian contemporary review states that this is "a mediocre film, based upon characters, situations and developments more than predictable."[5]
A retrospective review on the Spaghetti Western Database finds the film "lame" and states that "As so often" (with Spaghetti Western films) the music (here composed by Piero Umiliani) "is the best part to remember."[6]
