Back in the 80's there was a show on at 2am on Saturday nights/Sunday mornings called Snicker Theater. They had two stupid comdians? showing lots of Eurotrash crap and this is where I first caught this spaghetti-western. It stars Donald O'Brien from DR. BUTCHER M.D. as Lester the preacher who's looking for gold so he can open a church and his brother Jesse(Richard Harrison) who's more interested in opening his own whorehouse. Overall this is a pretty stupid movie with overly comedic fight scenes, guys running up walls and doing flips and whatnot and just general goofiness. There's a super stereotypical Chinaman character and the leader of the outlaw gang here looks like he stepped out of a biker movie with his biker glasses and top-hat. Also that beast guy from the nazisploitation movie THE BEAST IN HEAT shows up as a bad guy. Only watchable if you're looking for something light-hearted and silly or if you cant sleep and it's 1985 again and you don't mind watching bad comedians do silly skits in the middle of your stupid movie.
I guess they also showed NO GRAVES ON BOOT HILL but that title wasn't as memorable to young me:
