Thanks, Milian. The ugly ones by the way was the first SW of a certain Milian … 
And California, in my opinion, the last of the great SWs; the civil war is over, like in Return of Ringo, but this time Gemma is a southern solider, and with no place to go home to…
Always good to see El Puro in a Big 20 (even if it’s dropped a place since the last one). 
Very nice list yes. One correction though: the correct French title is Une corde, un colt
Feminine, bien sûr!

That’s right. I should hopefully get a copy of the film soon. If I were Tomas Milian I’d probably say something like “obviously I remember being in the film. I’d just like to watch myself again, the greatest actor of all time”. He rates himself!
How many first positions to this day for Per un pugno di dollari, Django, La resa dei conti and Da uomo a uomo?
Per un pugno di dollari # 1 twice, 19 times top 3
Django # 1 once, 17 times top 3
La resa dei conti # 1 twice, 16 times top 3
Da uomo a uomo # 2 once, # 3 three times (4 too many, I still have no clue why this solid but unexiting Spag is in the top 20)
Thanks a lot.
The movie referenced in Kill Bill and Lee Van Cleef’s good performance are factors that count, in any case I think Death Rides a Horse deserves its place in the Top 20.
Actually I think it is mainly the Van Cleef factor.
Not even in my top 50, but at least in a top 100. A nice 6/10 Spag.

In my opinion, Petroni did a far better job with “Tepepa”.
Yes, I prefer Tepepa too.

Two fifth places in under 24 hours for Prega il morto e ammazza il vivo, that’s really surprising.
And 27 points are coming for E Dio disse a Caino, which is very good.
To kill a jackal is the finest of the no budget westerns ive seen and thats due to klaus kinski. Another actor in that role would make a boring film but thanks to kinski its a tense classic.
Have to agree it’s definitely one of the best low budget films from the genre and I was kept interested. A lot of that is down to the unpredictable Kinski.
Arizona Colt, And God said to Cain are both criminally underated. Im sure you’ve seen The Price of Power(1969), what did you think of it?
Luckily And God Said to Cain cannot be considered “criminally underrated”: it is a rising Top 30 title on SWDB, Top 40 Spagh according to IMDb users and at number two on the Alternative Top 20 list!
