Django, Kill! (Se sei vivo spara) is going to be shown on big screen in Zurich, Switzerland, 29th April 2015. 8.40 p.m. (expected to be shown in English with German Subtitles)!

During the NIFFF Neuchâtel International Fantastic Film Festival (3-11 July 2015) Spaghetti Westerns will be showed (in Switzerland, Neuchâtel):
With a name like GUILTY PLEASURES, the program of this 15th edition can only have one purpose: to laud the fundamental aspects of this strange enthrallment that drives the viewers to genre cinema. This program will draw up an overview of about 20 landmark fantasy films produced between 1970 and 1985.
This period, now considered a sort of golden age, spawned a swarm of sub-genres, endowed with names that range from scandalous to exuberant. Sexploitation (erotic films), Eco-vengeance (when the animal kingdom strikes back), Blaxploitation (films with an all African American cast) and Spaghetti Western are but a few examples of such genres that were heavily tapped in on the fringe of the system, and whose subjects will become the catalyst to 80s popular cinema. Such a festive and ardent wind will undoubtedly set ablaze your nights at the NIFFF!
There were/are some screenings at Tremblay-en-France - scroll down to Focus Western Spaghetti:
Un dollaro bucato (Blood for a Silver Dollar) was shown and Keoma will be shown tomorrow! Nice!

Blue Underground
Presents
New York Premiere of the Brand New Restoration
GET MEAN
Tony Anthony (COMIN’ AT YA!) and Lloyd Battista (BLINDMAN) star in this thrilling finale to the highly successful “Stranger” series, which critics have compared favorably to Sam Raimi’s ARMY OF DARKNESS. Tony Anthony is often regarded as the Jackie Chan of “Spaghetti Westerns,” doing all his own crazy, hair-raising stunts!
“The Stranger Is One Of The Coolest Spaghetti Western Characters Ever!”
– Spaghetti Western Database
“One of the damned craziest westerns I have ever watched…
The vibe and tone of the movie brought to mind
a mash-up of ARMY OF DARKNESS by way of DJANGO!”
– McBastard’s Mausoleum
“GET MEAN returns in fine form from Blue Underground…
A real labor of love for a jaw-dropping, wildly entertaining film!”
– Mondo Digital
“This full-blown restoration courtesy of Blue Underground is outstanding!”
