You won't be disappointed...

Bruce - I really like Alex Cox and I've enjoyed his films a lot. Straight to Hell is a great movie! Vincent - I'm not sure I could contribute something to the John Ford Blog-a-thon since I've only seen 5 or 6 of his films. I feel a bit silly writing about him, but I'll see if I can think of something worthwhile to contribute. Thanks for thinking of me! Thanks for the comments Bruce & Vincent!

But thats only my opinion. I'm just excited were finally getting the other Leone westersn as special editions that have availabe over seas. There is a great but very pricey book that lists every Spaghetti Western ever made. wellworth searching out, but like I said a bit on the steep side. Sadly they did not include Alex Cox's Straight To Hell. Which was a modern day take on the genre. Great list but I think 1 and 2 should be switched. But thats only my opinion.

It would make my Top 20 list for sure! I haven't seen <b>Five Man Army</b> though so I should give that a look soon. AR - I think you'd enjoy Corbucci's films like <b>The Great Silence</b> and <b>Django</b>, as well as the other two Django movies I mentioned. Corbucci's westerns have a surreal quality that I think you'd appreciate. Nicolas - I do like <b>Run Man Run</b>, but it's not a favorite. I think it's because I prefer seeing Thomas Milan in more serious roles so the casting didn't work too well for me. I'm not sure, but for comedy/ spaghetti westerns I personally prefer Terence Hill's films like <b>My Name is Nobody</b> and the <b>Trinity</b> series.

This gives me some good ideas of more films to watch. Thanks for posting! I wonder what a list of my top 10 films noir would look like?

A couple Italian westerns that I like that you didn't mention are "A Man called Blade" by Sergio Martino, and Don Taylor's "Five Man Army" which I count as it was written by Dario Argento. When I get settled, I'll see about catching up with Django. I didn't see "Massacre Time" but I did see Fulci's "Four for the Apocalypse". I still have gaps, and have not seen three of your ten films.

Yep, it was tough to choose. There was no way I could leave my favorite Leone films off the list, and no matter how I cut it he dominated. Of course, I snuck in mentiions of other films so it really ended up being a Top 16 list. ;) Neil - I hope you'll join in the fun too! Marty - Thanks for stopping by! I look forward to checking out your own list. Jeremy - I’m glad you participated! Yep, it was tough to choose.

Your choices are terrific. I did recently write a Spaghetti Western thing, that'll show up eventually. Perhaps I'll leave it at that.
