aka Kill and Pray. Kill and Say Your Prayers. Let them rest. Dio crea gli uomini Requescant li uccide. Requiescant – una bibbia… una colt… un massacre.A young boy, Requiescant (Lou Castel), is only survivor a massacre of Mexican peasants. He is found wandering the desert and taken in by a puritan family. Once he's old enough he, sets out to find and return with his step sister, who has run away. He locates her in a small town run by the despotic Ferguson (Mark Damon), who has her working as a prostitute and unable to leave. As a simple religious man he is determined to help his sister. Fortunately he soon learns how to use a gun and finds some friends in a small band of Mexican peasants lead by a revolutionary priest (Pier Paolo Pasolini).
An interesting political western, with pretensions to revolution and allegory. This features some great performances from Castel and Damon.
