What about Tim McCoy?
Yep, him too. And Johnny Mack Brown.
Just watched Fort Yuma Gold.
On a bit of a Giuliano Gemma kick at the moment.
Not his best but it was fun all the same. Maybe a few too many fist fights for my liking.
At least there was a part for my man, Lorenzo Robledo, and he didnât get tortured or killed!! That could be a first!
Today I watched two episodes of the coolest western series ever.
âThe Wild Wild Westâ
- Night Of The Man-Eating House
2.Night Of A Thousand Eyes
I love this show

Hang em high and 2 mules for sister sara
Day of AngerâŠI was going to watch a new one and then I saw it in the collection and just couldnât help myself.
Awesome flick.
Watched âMcLintockâ with my daughters.
Not my favourite Wayne film by a long chalk but it does have 3 main female characters which is an important element in my campaign to brainwash my daughters into liking westerns. Maureen OâHara, Yvonne De Carlo and Stephanie Powers all playing feisty females went down a treat with the girls despite the âTaming of the Shrewâ nature of the storyline. My 9 year old insisted this was the best western she had ever seen. Iâll obviously have to do more work on her taste but at least they are warming to the genre in general.
Slowly but surely Iâm winning them over.
I Död Mans SpÄr
It was interesting to watch western made in Sweden, even if it was cheaply made and rather dull one.

âI Död Mans SpĂ„râ is really terrible, not even a grade C movie!
Btw, where did you find it?
It used to be hard to get hold of a copy of that film.
âUtvandrarnaâ and âNybyggarnaâ on the other hand are quite good Swedish Eurowestern-dramas.

Iâve got avi to dvd english subtitled vhs rip version. Iâve downloaded it some time ago, converted it to dvd after removing some rubbish lines from the subs [âgoddamn hippiesâ and few more like that] and finally yesterday i decided to give it a go.
Watched âArizona Colt returnsâ last night ! Nice movie, doesnât knock you outta your boots but good and solid average material !!! The German dub. uses pretty rough language but is quite alright (no cheesy Brandt stuff) !!! English subs. are ok !!! A real curiosity is Bruno Nicolaiâs score, the main theme goes something like this:
"I guess I gotta get my gun / I guess Iâm gonna shoot someone / bang, bang, hey whoopie yuupie jey, bing, bang, bong ⊠"
Hillarious, Nicolai must have been on drugs or something
!!!
Anyone else seen the movie yet ???
Oh, by the way: The interviews are very interesting, especially the Dan van Husen one. Quite funny is his remark about âPotato Fritzâ Hardy KrĂŒger ;D (easter-egg) !!!
âDollar for the deadâ
For a tv production not too bad !
Today is Oct 26, on this date in 1881 was the legendary âGunfight At The O.K. Corralâ, so to commemorate this event I watched these great movies:
âGunfight At The O.K. Corralâ(1956)
-Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas
âTombstoneâ
-Kurt Russel, Val Kilmer, Sam Elliott

Beautiful title, but would you please translate it.
Död seems to me âdeadâ or âdeathâ, and SpĂ€r means, I would say, âtrackâ.
So my guess for the full title is âIn a dead manâs trackâ, but I suppose Iâm wrong, as usual.
Those Scandinavian languages sound so familiar and yet are so tricky.
But maybe you say the same thing about Dutch.
He he, youâre absolutely right, spot on!
I Död Mans SpĂ„r translates to In a Dead Manâs Track !
or Dead Manâs Trail

Yeah, good movie. Fun supporting role for Lee Van Cleef. The followup Hour of the Gun is pretty good as well.
In the last couple of days i watched ;
Duello Nel Texas
Uno Dopo LâAltro
Vivi O Preferibilimente Morti
and half of And Now Make Peace With God.
Didnât think iâd like Duello Nel Texas that much but it was pretty enjoyable. Love that title song, though the one on the film was very different to the version i have for some reason. Uno Dopo LâAltro was one i had wanted to see for a long time now, and i really did enjoy that one. Never dull, with quite a few twists, and surprisingly violent. As for Vivi O Preferibilimente Morti, well, i was a little worried (especially with the opening scene) as these comedy westerns can be hit and miss at best, or just downright terrible (Roy Colt and Winchester Jack springs to mind!), but again i was pleasantly surprised. Havenât made a decision on And Now Make Peace With God as i need to start again with it i think. Just too many distractions the last time i was watching it. Was digging the soundtrack though

I was not to keen on Duello Nel Texas, but looking forward to watching Uno Dopo LâAltro.
