It could have been just another Spaghetti western, with Lee Van Kleef, Jim Brown and Dana Andrews, except that this one was shot not in Almeria, but in the volcanic wastelands of the Canary Islands, with the role of Abilene, Texas taken by the Sioux City western theme park on Gran Canaria island.
As well as Gran Canaria, filming also took place on the Canaries’ far easterly island Lanzarote, where scenes were shot at El Golfo, Guatiza and Timanfaya.
