Everything about "Desert Heat" seems forced, and the actors play caricatures not characters, that you have seen before in hundreds of similar low budget action films. The shame is that some really good character actors are badly wasted. Throw in a mystical angle to further weaken an already weak screenplay, and you have a recipe for the disaster that "Desert Heat" becomes. People we know nothing about, doing pathetically stupid things, equals crap of epic proportions. Any resemblance drawn between this garbage and "Yojimbo" or "A Fistful of Dollars" is total nonsense. I give this two stars only because some of the supporting cast try to make something out of the nothing script. Avoid this and rewatch "A Fistful of Dollars". MERK
