Thanks for the update @Bill_Willer

Youā€™ve included Cemetery Without Crosses which is at 16 on the Essential Top 20 list so doesnā€™t qualify here. Could you give a different one to replace it with please? :slightly_smiling_face:

What the hell was I doing there? Sorry Phil I donā€™t know what I was thinking :rofl: Iā€™ve noticed @stanton has said RMR is back in the top 20 so I donā€™t know if you still need my list but Iā€™ll edit it now anyway.

Yes, still go ahead. See my post above. Run man Run, Sartana and Django Kill! are all eligible for votes now so they can pop in and out of my master list when necessary.

My old list above. To make it simple for the watcher of the list, Iā€™ll just kick out Challenge Of The McKennas to make room for RUN MAN RUN.

Cheers morgan

@JoeCool Do you mean the Essential Top 20 or the Alternative Top 20?
The Alt Top 20 hasnā€™t been updated yet so remains as was still.
You can find it here: Alternative Top 20 - The Spaghetti Western Database

@makesthemovie According to my records you havenā€™t submitted one before but Iā€™ve added this to the records now.

Some interesting and largely unpopular choices in there for sure. A Colt in the Hands of the Devil? Pretty sure this is the first vote weā€™ve ever had for a Bergonzelli film. Also, first ever votes for Owell Rock and Bury Them Deep. And not a single vote for any of the current top 10 films in the Alt T20 list. Thatā€™s unusual for sure.

Didnā€™t realise you were such a rebel mate :astonished:

I meant the Essential Top 20
What changed
What was it before change

Run Man Run was #20 for years and now itā€™s Sartana. Plus a couple of slights shifts in the order.

A rebel, eh? :smiley: I do try to be unique so thatā€™s a nice compliment. :grin: Iā€™ll admit the list is largely what Iā€™ve viewed myself over the last two years or so, but this is only my first list, so it could easily change over time. Who knows, I might have a very different list come the end of 2021 :wink:

And yes, I did thoroughly enjoy both A Colt in the Hands of the Devil and Death at Owell Rock. Not the greatest, but definitely entertaining.

Can someone post a before and after
So I can visually see the changes

As much as I like Run Man Run, Iā€™m happy Sartana took its place. I feel like all the great parts of Run Man Run were done better in The Big Gundown which is already on the list. Sartanaā€™s character (and by extension Sabataā€™s) are also so prevalent to the genre I feel he deserves a spot.

Se incontri Sartana prega per la tua morte is currently present both in the Essential and in the Alternative Top 20, it should not be so.
