Shadow of Sartana … Shadow of Your Death / Passa Sartana … è l’ombra della tua morte (Demofilo Fidani, 1969)

Does anyone have a copy of Autephex’s good quality fan dub they would be willing to trade/sell? Thanks.

I have copy of this movie

That must be Demofilo Fidani himself, if I’m not mistaken… :slight_smile:

Yep I would agree.

What other Spaghetti director would make a cameo in a western with blue shades?

Oh wow, I had no idea… thanks for correcting me with the proper screens! :slight_smile:

Was not sure whether had viewed this before, but upon hearing the familar music the director uses and the constant horse riding I had. The director acts in this and looks like he predicts the 70’s with his style of sunglasses. Jeff Cameron who wears a name tag with his name just in case anybody forgets. When people here his name they always seem surprised. Not really much of a plot so to speak, as we have to have time for lots of horse riding. Shame Dean Stratford died so soon as he usually makes me laugh alot. Intense mud fight near the end of the film. Well this director and his view of the West always provides me with some enjoyment.

Well, that was not as brutal a review as I expected :wink:

Simonetta is definitely one of the best features to Fidani westerns…

It’s by no means a masterpiece, but somehow I enjoyed myself. My expectations were low, of course. Apart from all this, there’s no need to be offensive, it’s a harmless little movie, nobody thinks it’s a great work of art.

One of his ‘better’ works,somehow liked it also.

Nice looking new fandub over at CG:

Very nice print this new fandub and in synch! Our man is on the job in this one as he rides on his horse again and again :smiley: . In fact lots of horse riding. Jeff likes to keep well known by wearing a name tag around his neck aswell. Was really in the mood for this type of western tonight…great stuff :slight_smile: .

Anybody have a DVD+R to trade?

Watched a Fidani film for the first time with this one. Have always stayed away from his films based on their reputation but this wasn’t all that bad. As others have mentioned in this thread story is pretty much nonexistent but the action kept my attention. Don’t know if I will be rushing back for a rewatch but it was decent entertainment.

This one is on UK Amazon Prime and next on my watch list. Wish me luck. Only checked out the opening Iginio Lardani Fistful of Dollars-style opening credits - the music is very very familiar. Is it recycled?

Well I’ve watched it now. For a Fidani western I didn’t think it was too bad although there was practically no plot, just a succession of action scenes in which Jeff C shot people, strung together by riding footage. Lots of self-contained vignettes (e.g. the Blondell kidnapping) which could be snipped at no loss to the narrative. I think I could have edited this down to an hour without loss of continuity quite easily.
I got confused at which town Jeff C was in at any one time - I think there were 3 different ones - because they all looked the same and I think were all the Elios set (as Fidani would not have been able to afford anything other than one set). I got confused with some of the riding scenes also and the point of the scene in which Jeff sat down for a meal with a woman, ate his food without saying anything and then just walked off and you never saw her again! Lots of really good somersaults and pirroettes; several of these made me laugh especially one when a bloke walked out out of his front door, got shot and then did a flip forwards.
Terrible film but I’ve seen worse.
