What happens

El revólver sangriento ("The Bloody Revolver" in English) is a 1964 Mexican western drama film directed by Miguel M. Delgado, and starring Luis Aguilar, Lola Beltrán, Flor Silvestre, Manuel Capetillo, Cuco Sánchez, Antonio Aguilar and Irma Dorantes, with the special participation of the comedian actors, Eleazar García «Chelelo» and María Elena Velasco «La India María». The lead actors were credited in an unusual "rigorous appearance on the screen" style, where the film's main characters are not ordered by importance, but by on-screen appearance. Written for the screen by Alfredo Salazar, the film was a production of Cinematográfica Calderón and follows the account of a silver-plated revolver, which has a deadly curse and falls on the hands of different men.
