Question about this horrible movie
Why was the gun cursed?
shareThe gunsmith's apprentice put the curse on the gun when he found out that the gun was made for the captain (and not himself) so he would marry gunsmith's daughter.
The curse was suppose to make the gun misfire every time it was used and often end the life of those who use it.
Additionally, when the daughter killed herself with the gun, her soul was locked in it or joined with it or something, so the old Mexican wanted to get the gun and put it (and her soul) to rest in his family memorabilia collection.
