Renegado Impiedoso
Bartender
Charles Bronson (Sete Homens e Um Destino) e o vencedor do Oscar Jack Palance (Amigos, Sempre Amigos) estrelam este magnífico western tão selvagem e indomado quando o próprio Velho Oeste. Queimando com dinâmicas sequências de ação e excelentes performances, Renegado Impiedoso é um audacioco conto de paixão, vingança e assassinato a sangue-frio. Chato (Bronson) é um índio Apache mestiço que vive na linha entre duas culturas, balanceando a sua lealdade e sua tribo com o encantamento que tem pelo mundo dos brancos. Mas quando Chato mata um cruel xerife em legítima-defesa, ele se vê caçado por um bando de assassinos liderados pelo impiedoso Quincey Whitmore (Palance), um ex-soldado Confederado que está determinado a vê-lo enforcado. São 13 homens contra um, mas a situação muda a favor de Chato quando ele guia seus perseguidores até o território apache, onde o difícil e cruel deserto consegue matar tanto quanto as balas de um atirador.
