Ah, that’s right. With Kinski. Cheers!

I found a whole western collection in a second hand store. I picked these up. Never expected to see the Django Shoots First DVD. A treasure.

Got this DVD new off of eBay for a reasonable price. Packaging is clunky but a nice addition to the collection.

Colt, in pugno al diavolo, Una - The Spaghetti Western Database (spaghetti-western.net)

Colt in the Hand of the Devil - the one with Bob Henry, not Robert Woods and William Berger.

What is that, to put it into perspective?

15.49 GBP but with shipping and taxes it kicked it up to 21.72 GBP. At the time I ordered, with the conversion rate, this made it $25 and change U.S. For an impossibly hard movie to find in the U.S., I was reasonably happy with that price.

I wonder if I can get it cheaper than from them directly, as it’ll almost be 40 EUR before customs… a round trip to London might turn out to be cheaper :slight_smile:

Got my copy. Region B is working. The cover is great.

I purchased this last year off of eBay for about $30, new and sealed, and what an underrated little gem it is.

I’ve never had an issue with Customs myself, but I feel bad my buddies in Europe seem to get the constant screw over their way.

Yeah, mine was brand new as well. Very glad to get it.

For £23, I’ve just pre-ordered ‘The Big Gundown’ from ‘Amazon UK’.
The release date is 5th December.

One of the greatest Spag. Westerns ever made, and an absolute must-have.

This box-set looks awesome…but is, I understand, limited to 5,000 copies.:cowboy_hat_face:

Now, in the United Kingdom, we just need the same full-on special treatment for Leone’s immortal 'Dollars Trilogy’.

See this link for all the features and supplements: Resa dei conti, La/BR - The Spaghetti Western Database

It’s one of my favorites, always in my top 20

When I think ‘slow burner’, The Ruthless Four always comes to mind. Great film indeed.
