DJANGO'S CUT PRICE CORPSES has the advantage of being a genuine DJANGO sequel but that doesn't make it much good. Instead this is one of the cheapest spaghetti westerns that I can remember seeing; it doesn't have that over-bright, sun-scorched feel to it, instead simply filmed in the lush green Italian countryside with various farm buildings visible in the background.
The plot is some hackneyed piece of writing about Django's girlfriend being taken by a gang of bandits which leads him on a rescue mission. He's aided in his progress by two characters who are far more interesting than he is: Fulton, a cadaverous card shark played with sinister relish by Gengher Gatti, and Pickwick, a brawling, larger-than-life character played by the bear-like John Desmont. By comparison, Jeff Cameron is wooden as the protagonist, and his character has no depth at all.
There are some routine shoot-outs that take place in this picture, and a stagecoach chase that feels very slow and stately. Some of the actresses give better performances than their male counterparts. In the end, the general humdrum feel comes down to director Luigi Batzella, whose heart simply doesn't seem to be in it.
