Cinematic Influence
The success of A Pistol for Ringo inspired numerous sequels, most notably $10,000 for Ringo (1965), Ringo and Gringo against Everyone (1966) and Two R-R-Ringos from Texas (1967). A musical comedy, A Woman for Ringo (1966), was also released and starred Sean Flynn and the Bayona Twins, Pili and Mili Bayona. However, the film received extremely poor reviews, as would most other western-themed musicals. Other such sequels included Ringo and His Golden Pistol (1966), Ringo of Nebraska (1966) and Ringo the Face of Revenge (1967).The Texican (1966) was retitled Ringo il Texano in Italy.
The Ringo series was also parodied in the animated series Bob's Burgers. In the episode Spaghetti Western and Meatballs, Bob and his son Gene bond after Bob receives the box set of the Banjo(Ringo) movies. Bob explains that they "made a whole bunch of these" in reference to the many sequels.
