Synopsis (from the Rue Morgue Press Release)

Cut Throats Nine follows a wagonload of convicts as they travel the northern mountains to carry out their death sentences. Following a surprise attack from a gang of bandits, only the sergeant, his beautiful young daughter and seven of the most sadistic, murderous men alive survive the assault. Cut Throats Nine is an original crowd pleasing experience that pushes the relatively subdued excesses of both the western and the horror movie into creative new territory.

It is a remake of the 1972 Spanish/Italian grindhouse western Condenados a vivir, whose entry in Rue Morgue Magazine's own The Connoisseur's Guide to 100 Alternative Horror Films is
Pushing the boundaries of graphic and bloody spaghetti western violence well into horror territory, this obscure guns 'n' gore extravaganza about desperate (and chained together) prisoners being marched through the mountains is as gritty as it gets. A nasty nihilistic gem, waiting to be rediscovered.
