Despite it is still considered the first "Django

defines it as "the most brutally violent spaghetti western ever made". Describing the film, Christopher Frayling
says that "the violence was of an extraordinarily savage kind". Antonio Bruschini writes that "this film is the first western to offer a sample of truly horrendous scenes".

The film had censor problems in many other countries: in England, the British censorship removed about half an hour of film. Recently, several DVD editions restored the removed scenes, publishing the film in an uncut and uncensoured version.
