  1. Cast update: It seems Sambrell only appears in the trailer that was lensed in Spain, to help sell the project. Sources say that the entire film was made in Venzuela. Sambrell is NOT listed in recent Venzuelian notices. He might not actually appear in the film any more. PS Sambrell does show up in the 1989 first pilot for the Zorro Tv series that was shot in Spain.

  4. I saw it advertised several times in Variety stating it would be showing at different industry film shows in hopes of finding a distributor but as far as I know it was never released.

  8. The film is listed in Aldo Sambrell's biography and there are pictures with him and Ethan Wayne in costume. Possibly he was in the film and his scenes were cut. on

  9. Chances are I won't be able to find the film either. I hate that sometimes.
