Get Mean, also known as Beat a Dead Horse, Vengeance of the Barbarians and The Stranger Gets Mean, is a 1975 Italian-American Spaghetti Western fantasy comedy film directed by Ferdinando Baldi and starring Tony Anthony, Lloyd Battista, Raf Baldassarre, Diana Lorys and Mirta Miller. It is the final sequel to A Stranger in Town, with Anthony reprising the role of "The Stranger."
The film was released to little acclaim and never received a physical release on the home video market until 2015, when it was released by Blue Underground on remastered Blu-ray and DVD.
The film begins as the Stranger is dragged into a ghost town by his horse, who dies upon entering the town. In the town is a gypsy fortune teller and a princess who offers the Stranger $50,000 to return her to Spain where her nation is being attacked by Viking type Barbarians and the Moors. The Stranger is denied his $50,000 but finds out about a lost treasure that he wants for himself.
