Sep 29, 2002 · 145 minutes ‧ R ‧ 1969. Roger Ebert. September 29, 2002. 7 min read. In an early scene of “The Wild Bunch,” the bunch rides into town past a crowd of children who are gathered with excitement around their game. They have trapped some scorpions and are watching them being tortured by ants.
A vicious, confusing gunfight occurs, with gang members, bounty hunters, and civilians caught in the crossfire, resulting in numerous deaths. Only six members of the gang escape - Pike, Dutch, the Gorches, Angel, and Buck, who has been shot in the face and blinded - and the rest of the gang is killed.
