[quote=“Phil H, post:7, topic:1716”]I watched a download of this taken from Italian TV and although it was fandubbed into English I could only copy it onto disc with the first (Italian) audio track. (I use Nero for this) Annoying but not a difficult film to understand in Italian and I’d rather watch it that way on my TV than on my computer in English. Does anyone else have these problems when copying downloaded files onto disc? It has happened to me on a few occasions and is sometimes more frustrating than it was here.[/quote]I use program called ConvertXtoDVD. Easy to use, faster than Nero and I never had problem including dual audio layers or subtitles.
I remember this one very fondly - in fact it could make my alternative top 20 next time - it certainly needs another viewing.
Danny boy is indeed “downright nasty” and I remember his demise being mentioned in the “best deaths” thread.
I also remember tickling Romaine’s funnybone when I mentioned the underwealmingness of the mountain rescue - as we have to climb higher hills in west yorkshire to get to the shops.
I’ll have a look at the quality of my dvd Phil - can always bring one down nexttime Londonway?
Cheers Bill. I’ll give it a try.
I’ve had the same problems.
There are two solutions: connect your PC directly to the TV, or watch the thing on your PC
I bought myself an easy chair a while ago, and found a nice corner in the house where I can install myself with my chair and PC. Once you’re a bit accustomed to it, it’s very comfortable. I also have this direct-connection-to-TV possibility, but watch the downloads most of the time in my private corner
Thanks, chameleon! 
I’ll do it in a minute.
No problem! 
They’re watermarked. Don’t know if it’s a good idea to add them.
I’ve already done this.
Well, I can ask Seb to remove them from database.
At the moment, I’ve removed it from the site with Pictures.
If you look more carefully at those pictures, you’ll see little sign: ivid.it.
Very good image quality (see link below, penultimate post) for the version that was recently broadcast on RaiMovie, but there’s a slight problem: if for some unknown reason the introductory scene is placed immediately after the title sequence showing Norman travelling to town - and that is the case here - the opening on the whole is obviously less effective.
I noticed this version was uploaded in Cinemageddon as well. I haven’t downloaded it yet.
Just viewed this one agian via the new fandub at CG. Never noticed before but the Ramon characters voice sounds a bit out of place on the english dub. Yes there is violent action in this one, but the story I am not sure on at times. Perhaps a little padded out. But the main character is a good one, and their are a few plot turns to keep you interested.
Had not watched it before and was pleasantly surprised by this early spagh
No Top 20 material, but better than average and with a great Dan Vadis

I watched this one this morning on Film & Clips Western Movies. It’s the first time I’ve seen this one and, I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. Not a classic by any means, but an enjoyable little western.
It has left me wondering though what became of actress Rosy Zichell. She has a total of six credits listed with the last two being this one then, one of my favorites, Hole in the Forehead. I thought she was intriguing in both.

I was curious of how Dan Vadis performed and had to wait over a half hour. I liked his face and character in The Stranger Returns (8/10) but his entrance in this SW was not impressing so I gave up after 38 minutes. Horrible music during the wild shootings after the first half hour (but good promising opening trumpet music) and a rather boring American style first half hour emphasized my negative impression of Degueyo as long or short I lasted.
Cheap looking film, here Vari does not make the best out of his limited budgets like in his later Spags.
The storytelling is often crude, as is often the editing, as is often the use of the score, and of course Rossi-Stuart is again a bland lead. But his lack of charisma is out-balanced by the other 3 actors of the rescue quartet and an again convincing Dan Vadis as the brutish baddie.
Overall with its feverish brutality it works pretty well, and is better than its shortcomings might suggest. 6/10
Deguello has been updated to the new layout (3.0). Let us know if you can add anything: pictures, posters, trivia, facts, figures, links, etc…

In a way it’s a very Mediterranean, very melodramatic presentation of a variation of the core Mag7 idea, in that a group of fighters end up defending a small town against a Mexican gang.
The look is pretty much spot on, and the cast is mostly well picked. The biggest disappointment for me was the final confrontation after Ramon and his men have entered the town (the lead-up to there was nice). Apart from the interesting and necessary explanation of the Garrone - Ghia situation, it seemed to drag on and on, and yet another person appears from somewhere with the chance to kill Ramon but fails, only with music yet another notch more dramatic, while our injured main hero completely disappears. It almost felt like he intentionally waited until really everybody else was killed before he decided to step into the ring.

This is just boring and the budget or Stuart are not really to blame. The screenplay and its realization suck.
