A mysterious, vengeful stranger rides into town and creates all sorts of havoc. It seems there are a number of people on his list and before he metes out justice to each one, he places a cross with that person's name on it in the middle of the street. The burning question becomes whether these people are dealing with a one-man army of flesh and blood or an avenging angel of death. The answer may lie in the betrayal and massacre of a Confederate Army unit during the Civil War...
Django the Bastard was first released in 1969.[2]
VCI Entertainment released the English dubbed version on DVD during 2002 in both full and widescreen formats under its U.S. title The Strangers Gundown. This product is currently out of print (OOP).[3]
