When a Mexican land baron puts a million dollars on the head of the man who seduced his daughter, two money-hungry men recruit a small-town bartender, Bennie (Warren Oates), to help them do their dirty work. He sets off with his girlfriend, Elita, on a tequila-fueled trek across the desolate Mexican frontier, which grows more intense, gruesome and bloody with every savage murder they leave in their wake!
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is the only one of his films on which Sam Peckinpah had final cut. Beautiful, violent, troubling, heartbreaking, astonishing, this existential acid Western is easily Peckinpah’s purest, bleakest, most brutal film.
The film contains scenes that could be disturbing to some viewers.
