*** Résumé en anglais seulement ***This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!*Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s.In the harsh desert landscape of 1860s Mexico, two outcasts cross paths. Richard Roundtree (Shaft, Crack House) is a former Union soldier, desperate and on the run after killing a superior officer. Roy Thinnes (Airport 1975, Rush Week) is a crippled Native American of mixed race, who lives as a pariah away from any tribe. Identified only as The Black Man and The Indian, the two deal with mutual hatred and mistrust before forming a strange partnership until a vicious bounty hunter played by Nigel Davenport (Phase IV, Nighthawks) finds his way to them. How long can they last holed up in this brutal desert, stalked by both Davenport and Mexican bandits, and reliant on an uneasy relationship that borders on madness?An unusually racially-focused entry in the canon of the anti-Western , director Don Chaffey's (Jason and the Argonauts) CHARLEY ONE-EYE came during a flurry of English Westerns of the era. Recalling the work of Sam Peckinpah, it lays on both allegory and graphic violence liberally, with stunning performances from its two leads. Shot in Spain's famed Almería, a shooting location of many Eurowesterns, CHARLEY ONE-EYE is scored with a sparse, haunting soundtrack by John Cameron (Psychomania). Newly scanned in 4K and restored to its fully uncut version, Vinegar Syndrome Labs proudly presents this intense and unique character-driven tale of raw survival.
