"To Hell and Back" is an average Western being proceeded in Spaghetti style more than American . It's a disconcerting film with all the ingredients as action , brawls , crossfire , hot pursuits , the typical confrontation between good guys against bad guys and resulting to be entertaining but in low quality . Including violent shoot'em up , tortures as well as brawls and fights with plenty of bounds , leaps and kick-ass . Fast-draw Johnny King (George Hilton) , a brave gunfighter , sets out to revenge the death of his mentor and friend , after he has been killed for his land by the three Ward Brothers . As the tough gunslinger called King arrives in a little town , he seeks justice and vengeance and becomes involved in an intrigue that deals with several murders . King is detained accused for killing and he is locked in prison where he meets Meredith ; both of whom escape and subsequently to carry out a bank robbery .

Then , a new sheriff is appointed and there occurs a string of killings , shootouts and gun-plays . After causing some trouble for the Wards (Paul Muller , Gerard Herter) , Johnny faces a new opponent , his outlaw friend , Meredith . Meanwhile , King saves the beautiful damsel in distress called Liz (Claudie Lange) and falls for her . At the end , it happens the predictable gun-down between king and enemies in Sergio Leone style .
An exciting western that packs a story full of violence , amazing close-ups , thrills , fights , killings , horse pursuits , middling realization , ordinary zooms , and so-so interpretations abound and at the final happens the ultimate moving confrontation . The picture starts in comical and ironical style , in Terence Hill/Bud Spencer's similar ways , including the ordinary punches , kick-asses , and slaps ; however , a bit later on , it changes and turns into a violent and dark yarn . Acceptable action sequences with rousing gun-play , spectacular shootouts , poor scenarios and glimmer go riding throughout mountains and cliffs from Almeria , Spain . The picture allows for periods of humor and comic relief , and calm in which to establish characters punctuated by viscerally exciting bursts of action .
