Four of the Apocalypse (I Quattro dell'apocalisse) is a 1975 Spaghetti Western film directed by Lucio Fulci and starring Fabio Testi. It is based on two stories by western writer Bret Harte, "The Luck of Roaring Camp" and "The Outcasts of Poker Flat".
The sole survivors from a vigilante attack on a wild west town, gambler Stubby Preston, pregnant prostitute Bunny, alcoholic Clem and Bud, who sees ghosts, strike out for the next town. On the trail, the four draw the attention of Chaco, a bandit gunman. At first, Chaco is cautiously accepted into the travelling party, but then he poisons the group with hallucinogens and leaves them to die. The survivors then find a mining town, where Bunny goes into labor. After tragedy befalls Bunny, Stubby seeks his revenge against Chaco.
This Soundtrack was written by Fabio Bixio, Fabio Frizzi and Vince Tempera.
Testi's character, Stubby, is the "John Oakhurst" character from "Poker Flats". Lynne Frederick's "Bunny" is named "Duchess" in the original story. The outlaw Chaco is an additional one for the film, and the action in the film is considerably more violent than in the stories. LESS
