29. Death Sentence
Is this Cash another ghost avenger, like in The Stranger’s Gundown ? Really like this film, but as others I have some serious trouble stomaching the last part. And how can our guy ride out leaving the blonde in the middle of nowhere without a horse? Shame on him!

That was a quality month’s viewing, right there.
Seems you managed to complete 126,67 % 
Fantastic! Gives me a head start on next year. 
The quote is the first post of this thread November 2015. Not only a mental endeavor, a mental cleansing as well. To prevent abstinence I plan to read the whole thread this weekend from the first to the last post. A lot of interesting stuff here that will not be found under the films’ threads, I believe.
But Phil, how, when and where did this thing (that some people with no insight in European culture in the sixties and seventies whatsoever might think not entirely sane) start out?
You’re as far ahead as Samantha Fox!
I invented it.
I did it on my own in 2014 as something to do in between a 31-day Halloween movie challenge and a 31-day Christmas movie challenge, but a few posters fancied the idea of doing it too the following year so I named it “SpagvemberFest” in 2015 and Phil - moderating at that time - thought the endeavour deserved a thread of its own, so here we are.
*30. Leone: Fisful of Dollars
-I made it! I started with Man, Pride and Vengeance but I was too tired and switched it to this more familiar film. 9/10
Summary of 2017
Pretty good selection this year. My aim was to watch only Koch Media dvd’s but after 23 films I just started to pick random titles from the shelf. I didn’t plan it but I ended up watching 4 Tessari films, some Gemma and quite many Steffen (though not even close to the Phil’s Herculean effort).
RASS 5 (Spagvemberfest 30)
Vengeance Trail (Squitieri / 1971)
Well, that’s that for another year.
The fifth and final Rassimov spaghetti sees him as the bad guy to Leonard Mann’s vengeful hero (ish). Rass had the face that suited villainous roles and he does the job well in this. The film has the overall feel of a revisionist western with its story around the misuse of Indians and a general climate of sadness while still offering the usual quota of random violence you expect from a spaghetti.ll in all a good little spag. In fact, in the context of what else was being churned out in this genre in 1971 a veritable masterpiece for the year.
In truth it turned out to be a genuine pleasure and I have come out of it with new respect for the Steff.
It also turned out, as usual, to have left a gaping hole in my life now that it’s over. There is definitely something to be said for having a tight structure with set goals for your day. However mental they might seem to others. Also, as usual, I am feeling the need to replace it another similar quest for December but I will definitely not be jumping on board LC’s Christmas project as I bloody hate Christmas movies for the most part. That really would be an ordeal.
Anyway, just for completion’s sake, here is my list of films watched during Spagvemberfest 2017:
Yeah, I won’t be doing that for a good while myself either. I mean there’ll always be a small clutch of films I’ll want to go to around the day itself, but 28 or so Christmas films (plus a couple of New Year’s Eve titles to polish off the month) is brutal, WAY more so than 31 Days of Halloween or SpagvemberFest.
I do really pick up the bug though for watching movies in vaguely themed blocks. Look what I’ve got jotted on my notepad:
Earlier this year I entertained myself with an “Elvis” week, a “Shark” weekend and a “Dystopian” Easter weekender. I think it helps focus me with what to watch.
Of those I think the Pam Grier, Classic Japan, 70s Cop and John Carpenter weeks look most tempting.
You’ve got me thinking now.
These are my Spagvember films rated by my Django excel sheet. Only 26 films, but 30 viewings.

So I have over the three last days read the whole thread, 695 postings, taking my time, following links and checking up on films that I haven’t seen or forgot about, also taking some notes. And wonder above all wonders, I ended up with a new list of exactly thirty films to watch/rewatch. Is this a sign that I will be around here next November?
But for now I need to get out of this bubble…
How right you were, Asa. And what a great job the electee has been doing so far … I mean, frankly, it’s great, just great – the highest level of great. One of those fake-news-papers called his recent visitation of Britain “the visit from hell.” The Trump’s-Day-Machine is in full motion: one year down, three to go. I really do not not care, do u not?
Will there be a Spag(h?)vemberfest 2018? If so, I think it should get its own topic and I wanna announce it via the newsletter as well
Love it 
Can we have artwork for 2018?
Sure
