the bounty killer (1967) aka The Ugly Ones. El precio de un hombre. The Price of a Man.
"He's one of us."
Luke Chilson (Richard Wyler), is a bounty hunter, dispised by the people for bringing in murderers to justice, dead or alive. When Jose Gomez (Tomas Milian) escapes, with the help from a women (Halina Zalewska) and they return to their home village, he is protected by them, out of a misplaced sense of loyalty. Unfortunately for the villagers they do not realise that he is not the victim of injustice, but a dangerous killer.
Fine western with an interesting twist to the tale, helped by good character development and direction.
