Fury of Johnny Kid (Italian: Dove si spara di più, Spanish: La furia de Johnny Kidd, also known as Ultimate Gunfighter) is a 1967 Italian-Spanish film directed by Gianni Puccini. The Italian and Spanish versions of the film have different endings.[1] The film is a Spaghetti Western version of William Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and Juliet. Paul Naschy worked as an assistant director on this film, and Director Puccini told him he wanted to bring Naschy back to Rome to work with him on other projects. Puccini died in Rome in December 1968, so it was not to be.[1]
