Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Bezenby It's thirty-seven minutes before a shot is fired in this film! That must be some sort of record for a non-comedic Spaghetti Western. Additionally, Klaus Kinski is the good guy! What is this, some kind of topsy turvy Spaghetti Western world where horses ride men and chickens eat Fernando Sancho?No, it's not. It's a deadly serious revenge film that takes place almost in real time, most of it at night, which means it's a good idea to seek out a decent version of this film or else you'll see next to nothing. Kinski is Gary Hamilton, a man we first see busting rocks in prison before being pardoned due to some loophole I didn't quite understand. Gary's slightly miffed because he was wrongly imprisoned and spent ten years in the pokey due to some guy called Acombar, so he lets bygones be bygones by getting out a jail, buying a rifle, and heading for town to kill Acombar and every single other person Acombar has hired to protect himself. Luckily, Gary bumps into Acombar's innocent, oblivious son on the way there and gets him to pass on the message, which leads to all kind of ominous staring. Even more luckily there's a scheduling conflict which means Gary will be arriving in town at exactly the same time as a tornado.That's the plot, more or less. It's kind of like Django the Bastard in the way that Kinski slinks about the place wasting loads of bad guys in a creepy fashion, except this one plays up the horror angle even more (or Gothic horror angle I guess), with the continuous ringing of the church bell driving the hired goons mad, the relentless darkness and Kinski's big weird face. Acombar's main chamber is made of mirrored walls, which reminded me of the giallo Libido (which also has Luciano Pigozzi in it).Speaking of Pigozzi, he suffers from one of the most unique and violent deaths in a Spaghetti Western, surpassed only by two incredibly horrible deaths in the film Django Kill…if you live, shoot! Ear-splitting song at the start too which might put some people off, but stick with it – this is one of Antonio Margeherriti's best films.

classicsoncall Klaus Kinski is one of the few B list performers I'll go out of my way to see, and this Euro-West feature is a good example of his sinister presence on screen. You'll generally catch him as a villain since he so naturally looks the part, though in "And God Said to Cain' he portrays an anti-hero out for revenge against the man who framed him for a gold robbery during the Civil war. The film is a good one if you stay with the basic premise, but it's sure tough to follow the action as most, probably three quarters of the picture takes place at night. Complicating matters further, Kinski's character, Gary Hamilton, traverses the underground caves of Santa Maria while on his mission of revenge. A conveniently conceived tornado also hits town to lend a further atmospheric dimension to the story, though that doesn't amount to much more than a big wind.The picture provides a couple of cool elements I haven't seen in a Western before, much less the spaghetti variety. The dripping water in the cave in an early scene seemed to provide a natural musical accompaniment to the movements on screen just before Hamilton took out his first victim. Later on, I thought it was pretty clever the way Hamilton made a bell ringer out of Miguel, if you know what I mean.I'm certainly not as well versed on the genre as many of the other posters on this board, and I usually learn a lot about a film by reading what others have to say. What I found most interesting about this film's background was the horror influence inspired by it's director Antonio Margheriti. In the picture, those elements are used to good effect to enhance and build tension in the story. The outcome itself is fairly predictable, so it's up to the ride that gets you there to be as entertaining as possible.

whpratt1 This is a very unusual Western Film which has more scenes in the dark with a great deal of difficulty in seeing just what is going on. However, there is a tornado which is expected and you do hear all kinds of high winds. This story is concerned about a Gary Hamilton, (Klaus Kinski) who is seeking revenge against Acombar (Peter Corsten) for framing him with a crime he never committed and eventually causing Gary Hamilton to serve ten years in prison. Gary Hamilton has been released and is riding on a stagecoach along with Dick Acombar (Antonio Cantafora) who is the son of the man Gary Hamilton wants to kill. Once Gary Hamilton realizes Dick Acombar is riding with him, he tells Dick to tell his father he is going to meet with him very shortly. It is from this point in the film when it becomes quite interesting and you could call this Western a Horror Film. Enjoy.

bensonmum2 After serving 10 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Gary Hamilton (Klaus Kinski) is released. Hamilton has had 10 long years to plot his revenge and he intends to get it. His quarry, a man named Acombar (Peter Carsten), has assembled something of an army to help protect him and his family. But Hamilton appears to have something on his side – God. Hamilton rides into town just ahead of the wind, dust, and noise of a tornado. It's quite an entrance! And God Said to Cain is a solid Spaghetti Western (SW) from often underrated Italian director Antonio Margheriti. With this movie, Margheriti put together one terribly effective SW. A lot of SWs include some sort of light-hearted, comedic moments. That's not the case with And God Said to Cain. It's as serious and dark as any SW I've seen. Margheriti doesn't allow a single moment of levity. Normally relegated to playing the heavy, Klaus Kinski gets a rare opportunity to play the lead. And he does a good job with it. He plays Hamilton as a man with a single-minded focus – get revenge. Before we as an audience even know who Hamilton is or what he's up to, he's killing people on a dark, stormy night. The action and shootouts are entertaining, the supporting cast is solid, the music is good, and the sets and locations fit the film nicely. What more can you ask for in a SW? The only negative regarding my experience with And God Said to Cain actually has nothing to do the movie, but concerns the budget label DVD I watched. What a terrible transfer! Much of the movie is set at night and it was often very difficult to tell what was happening. Who knows? I might have rated the movie higher had I not missed about a fourth of the action. So be warned – in this case you get what you pay for.
