What happens

Giubbe rosse (Red Coats), internationally released as Cormack of the Mounties, Killers of the Savage North, Red Coat and Royal Mounted Police, is a 1975 Italian adventure film co-written and directed by Joe D'Amato. It is part of a brief series of films that tried to market the commercial success of Lucio Fulci's White Fang presenting very similar plots and settings. D'Amato co-wrote the film with writer/actor George Eastman, who went on to star in a dozen or more D'Amato films. It was the first film that Aristide Massaccesi signed with his stage name Joe D'Amato. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
