YMMV / The Treasure of Silver Lake

Go To

  • Complete Monster: Colonel Brinkley, leader of the bandit group the Tramps, murders several people to steal a treasure map belonging to one. Upon learning the dying man had fled to a homestead, Brinkley takes his men to massacre the region, driven off only by the heroic Apache warrior Winnetou bringing reinforcements. Brinkley later attacks an Indian village and has the women and children gunned down while the men are away, while also forcing one victim's son to lead him to the treasure by threatening the safety of the young man's Love Interest. Brinkley also proceeds to murder his own gang when it appears he has the treasure in his grasp, planning to keep the wealth entirely to himself.
