Yes he does look pissed off!

If you like westerns with a bit of horror thrown in you’ll like Dead in Tombstone. Mickey Rouke plays a very rotund Devil collecting souls of dead outlaws as they descend to hell, the rest of the cast are fairly inconsequential except for Danny Trejo who gives a reasonable performance.

Essentially a bank robbing gang turn on one of their own and kill him. He makes a deal with the devil and returns to try and kill them all in revenge in one day in exchange for his own soul.

Lots of the usual sort of gunfights ensue and blood and guts fly through the air. The film reminded me somewhat of the 1999 film Purgatory without it quite being as good.
