All-kid western is a misfiring comedy

Warning: Spoilers
KID, TERROR OF THE WEST is so far the oddest spaghetti western I've watched. Remember that 1930s-era all-dwarf western THE TERROR OF TINY TOWN? Well, this one's similar, but it replaces all of the adult roles with kids and the result is more annoying than anything else. You can imagine what the voices are like on the English dubbed version and I was tempted to wear earplugs after a while. The plot is about a bad-mannered gang who decide to commit a robbery, but the whole thing is based around the novelty value of having kids dressed up as cowboys, prostitutes, bartenders, and shopkeepers. I found it one-note and unfunny, a poor and unsuccessful attempt to bring LITTLE RASCALS-style humour into the spaghetti western genre.
