Phil says that Marco Giusti says that Garrone āwas likely the lone scriptwriter despite joint creditā¦ā
I like to give Garrone credit, cos he comes in for a fair amount of stick at times and not everybody enjoys his films as much as I (Iām thinking No Graves on Boot Hill, Vendetta at Dawn and Django the Bastard here.)
[size=1](Mind you Iād be hard pushed to find anything good to say about his involvement with Bastard, Go and Kill Chaco.)[/size]
Thatās what sets this apart from other run-of-the-mill Mexi-Westerns (Iām not talking so much about the more famous āZapataā Westerns). Itās sincere rather than shallow for a change.

However, I like Garrone.
Garrone contributed to the screenplay.
One belated agreeā¦
good to see KK getting some love ;D
Hey, itās with Steffen and this means solid dusty fun.
I am watching a copy of the Koch media release and it is excellent so far. I might even say this could become a top 20 spaghetti western for me. I love the political aspect of it and Steffen is top notch in it.
Never mind the politics, this is the Fernando Sancho show! ;D
I love Freddy in this one.

he is great too. Probably his best role too.
Glad youāre enjoying Frank. One of my favorites
I am too. Thank Phil for filling my coffers with Steffen movies. My opinion of has improved with each movie I have seen. Steffen gets knocked too easily and I find him enjoyable. Heās no Lee or Franco or Gianni but heās good in his own way.
Yes! I happen to think that KILLER KID is a great film!
One of my favorite Steffen Westerns, to be sure.
I like Steffen a great deal and have never thought him to be the āwoodenā actor that most people tag him to be.
Only seen a few with Steffen, but iād have to agree with you on this, so far.
Steffen is among my top tier of spaghetti regulars. I rate him above Garko
Theyāre both in a class of their own. Garko couldnāt pull off a Django the Bastard even if heād been infected with a zombie virus. On the other hand Steffen would have made a horrible Sartana.
Apples and pears.
Well I wouldnāt go that far but I have come to appreciate Steffen a lot more over the past few years. Not sure whether I have come to appreciate his subtle acting approach or just been worn down by weight of numbers in terms of films he made. Either way I do enjoy a good Tony picture these days and Killer Kid is certainly one of his very best.

Maybe true. I agree with your statements about Garko not playing a Bastard Django, but I would like to see Steffen attempt a Sartana. Would be very curious to see the result
Iāve liked Steffen since day 1ā¦ On the other hand, I donāt care much for Garko really. Iām not sure if its Garko or the roles he plays thoughā¦ not my style

LOL nice way of putting it.
As for me, I love Steffen but Killer kid is merely āokayā with me. Its not one of my favorite Steffen westerns.
I canāt compare Garko to Steffen itās not fair to either actor - they both have different styles and they each work in the movies they appeared in.
