Chato's Land

1972 • 100 minutes

About this movie

After killing a sheriff in self-defense during a skirmish in an 'all- white' saloon, Chato, an embittered Apache half-breed (a mostly silent but determined Charles Bronson), is pursued across the parched Western desert by a disreputable, ragtag white posse led by an ex-Confederate officer (Jack Palance). Eventually, the pursued and the pursuers will become reversed after some members of the posse rape Chato's squaw--an act that will convert Chato into a savage, vengeful warrior. Living off rattlesnakes and using every natural and unnatural tool of the desert, he will pick off his racist pursuers one by one...

Ratings and reviews

I bought a copie of movie as part a collection released by deagostini as part of their western collection .its a.fantastic movie Charles Bronson is brilliant as chato .

Bronson says 5 words in English. I was surprised that this was directed by Michael winner . He was a far better directer than his reputation suggests.

A great movie, but not for the fainted heart.
