Tepepa
Tepepa, also known as Blood and Guns, is an Italian epic Zapata Western film starring Tomas Milian and Orson Welles. The film was directed by Giulio Petroni. It was co-produced with Spain, where the film was released with the title Tepepa... Viva La Revolución. Plot 
The government of "comrade" Madero does not satisfy the peon Tepepa, who continues his guerilla 
battle as a revolutionary, against the government troops together with a group of faithful fighters. Tepepa is feeling mocked by the ex-revolutionary Madero, who is now head of state. Tepepa finds 
himself several times facing the fearsome chief of police, Colonel Cascorro, and is constantly persecuted by an English doctor, 
Henry Price, eager to avenge a girl from a rich family, with whom the doctor was in love, and whom 
Tepepa had raped, causing her to suicide. During the last fight Cascorro finally manages to wound Tepepa, who has escaped him several times, 
but in the decisive battle Cascarro is killed by the revolutionary. Meanwhile, the doctor, who despite 
his hatred for Tepepa had remained at the side of the revolutionaries, manages to take revenge on the peon, 
killing him with a scalpel immediately after extracting the bullet from his wound. The Doctor then packs his horse to leave, only to be shot by Paquito. The death of Tepepa, however, does not mark the end of the revolution, and others will continue the battle in his place. Cast
