Wichita's Christpher Connelly in "Django Strikes Again" (1987)

Starring Wichita's Christopher Connelly

"Django Strikes Again" (1987) is the Franco Nero sequel to the 1966 hit Django. By the time Nero decided to do this sequel original director, Sergio Corbucci, was too ill to direct and the spaghetti western genre had been long since dead.

Plot:
Twenty years after the events in the first Django, the title character has left the violent life of a gunslinger to become a monk. Living in seclusion in a monastery, he wants no more of the violent actions he perpetrated. Suddenly, he learns from a dying former lover that some time ago he had a young daughter, who has been kidnapped along with other children who are now working for a ruthless Belgian criminal known as El Diablo (The Devil) Orlowsky, who is an arms dealer and slave trader. The children and other prisoners work in Orlowsky's mine, from which he hopes to get rich from the spoils. Determined to find his daughter and nail the bad guys, Django gets some arms and goes on the warpath against Orlowsky's private army.

News reaches Nero that a rebel Hungarian soldier (Christopher Connelly) has kidnapped his daughter to work in a bordello (he also kidnaps boys to work in his silver mines) so he decides to dig up his machine gun to go get her back. I forgot to mention that Donald Pleasance is in the film but his character is completely forgettable.

Franco Nero as Django/Brother Ignatius
Christopher Connelly as 'El Diablo' Orlowsky

Because of the spaghetti western genre being dead and gone and for the fact Nero looks 20 years older, the filmmakers decided to make the storyline take twenty years after the events of the original Django, which in turn makes this film take place after the western age.
