One of Cannon Films' two 1976 Italian-Israeli co-productions
starring Lee Van Cleef and Leif Garrett (Gianfranco Parolini's
Pistola di Dio was the other), this spaghetti western was
actually shot in the Middle East by American director Joseph
Manduke. Pop star Garrett plays Tom, a teenager who teams with a
black gunfighter named Isaac (Jim Brown) to avenge his family.
The culprit was McClain (Van Cleef), a sadistic outlaw who
carried out the brutal rape-massacre, but his role is minor, as
most of the film deals with Tom's maturation and coming to terms
with his feelings. Omnipresent 1970s character actors Glynnis
O'Connor and John Marley co-star. If there is anything
remarkable about Kid Vengeance, it is Francesco Masi's fine
musical score, but the film is otherwise anemic.
