Four of the Apocalypse / I quattro dellā€™apocalisse (Lucio Fulci, 1975)

Life is tough and too short to cling on to crapā€¦ Keep what is essential .
Always, always, keep anything that makes you laugh (essential), and what personally ā€˜buildsā€™ you up.
Forever cling on to what you love.

I have no complaints about the acting, but with a story that is not so interesting for me the acting becomes a secondary aspect. Though I must say that I liked the quite different type of Fabio Testi characters much better in Dead Men Ride and Blood River. I think those suited him better
.
Tomas Milian was more acceptable here than the for me rather irritating Cuchillo character in the likewise mediocre Run Man Run. But HIS best performance and/or best character was in Django Kill IMO. In Four Of The Apocalypse his character was rather one dimensional but at least less annoying than in Run Man Run.


I started watching The Heightful Eight some years ago since but gave up within a rather short time because of the fucking dialogue, i.e. too much fucking there for my taste :slight_smile:


The director Lucio Fulciā€™s much earlier The Brute And The Beast/Massacre Time is more entertaining IMO and also a more normal type of SW, but not among the better on my SW Top list with its 6/10 rating good for rank 68.
