The official sequel to Django the spaghetti western that helped make Franco Nero a star. Although there have been upwards of 65 pseudo-sequels or films renamed to seem like a sequel this is the only re deal. Coming 20 years later the film is set in the jungles of Mexico where Django, now a monk is informed that the daughter he never knew he had has been kidnapped. After much soul searching he goes off to get her back and walks into the clutches of a mad aristocrat on an armed boat who is oppressing the natives and taking slaves. It isn't long before the man of the cloth reverts to being a man of the gun. The film is typical 1980's Italian exploitation film making. Its mindless and a not bad spaghetti western once the film actually gets going. Anchor Bay who released it to DVD has seen fit to restore a prologue cut before the original release, it has nothing to do with the rest of the film except to allow to aging gunfighters to wonder what happened to the best gun fighter ever. Its awful. It was rightly cut since it serves no purpose and is just badly done. Yes the gun fighters are killed by the villain of the film, but it is in no way connected to anything. If you watch the film, which you will enjoy if you're in the mood, skip the prologue and jump right to where Django shows up in the monastery.
