Trivia
Yul Brynner insisted he would only make this film if Steve McQueen was not involved because he felt that McQueen was too much of a scene-stealer. McQueen initially expressed interest in doing the film, but then decided the plot was too absurd and turned it down.

Goofs
Manuel kills the bull, but in the wide-angle shot that follows, its body is nowhere to be seen in the pen.

Quotes
Vin: I came after you so that you'd know there was a price on your head.
Chris: How much?
Vin: Five hundred.
Chris: Dollars?
Vin: Pesos.

A poor follow-up to a classic...

Living up to expectations is hard, this movie was the sequel to John Sturges´ classic The Magnificent Seven, it stars the three living part of the original posse; Chris ( Yul Brynner ), Vin ( newly appointed Robert Fuller to original Steve McQueen ), Chico ( new Julian Mateos to original Horst Bucholz ).

Although the story is very similar to the original ( seven guys fighting off a Mexican forajido ) the pacing is awful in comparison. As a stand-alone this movie would have been a decent one, but living in the shadow of its predecessor is devastating. Maybe this isn't fair but the hype of the first one was still buzzing and this sequel was but a poor copy of the original...
