morgan:
As for fresh air, how about a one time poll for the top 20 hardcore low budget spaghs not made by any of the three Sergios, also leaving out the other Zapats and the comedies, only the gritty stuff outside the official top 20, and using Phil’s restrictive definition of what films are eligible?
But how many films would be included in the poll?
I was wondering whether it’s possible to compile a decent, reasonably interesting list of 20 SWs without using the 210 films in the complete list shown above
Here is a first try, just for fun (the movies are listed in a random order)
Django Shoots First
My Name is Pecos
Il lungo giorno della violenza aka El Bandido Malpelo
Last of the Badmen
Cry for Revenge
Degueyo
Challenge of the McKennas
Awkward Hands
If One Is Born a Swine… Kill Him
Man with the Golden Pistol
Hey Amigo! A Toast to Your Death
Why Go on Killing?
Kidnapping
Deaf Smith & Johnny Ears
And the Crows Will Dig Your Grave
Red Coat
Heads or Tails
In a Colt’s Shadow
Pray to God and Dig Your Grave
Go with God, Gringo

Possible, yes. Some top-notch films in that list you put together there. Anyway, the poll I suggested above would probably have ended up pretty close to the Alternative top 20. But how about a poll for the 20 best hard core spaghs not in the Official top 20 nor in the Alternative top 20?
My nominations for such a list would be, if allowed, at least these, and probably one or two more:
Boot Hill
Sonora
I Want Him Dead
And the Crows Will Dig Your Grave
The Long Days of Vengeance
Cost of Dying
Challenge Of The McKennas
El Bandido Malpelo
Hate Is My God
Death Played the Flute
The Ultimate Killer
Why Go on Killing?
Terrible Day of the Big Gundown
Vengeance for Vengeance
Fury of Johnny Kid

Yeah, that was my original intention, but I figured my Top 20 was not likely change and went ahead. I might as well edit my post later on and since Stanton updates the ranking every now and then, it’s not that much of a big deal anyway.

New year, new update in the near future…
The last update was from March, and only 5 new lists, next to some altered ones, have arrived. But anyone who wants to rethink his old list can do that now. Some of the oldest members haven’t done this for many years, and we are still waiting for the one by Ennio … most likely the list to end all lists … who knows …
