Lol yeah, I didn’t expect anything from Vengeance but was blown away by it, and still am on the 4th viewing
Nice to see much more individual looking lists coming in, much less predictable than those of old, and much better for it
On that joyous day that i finally watch the last film on my “to watch” pile, i think mine will probably change a lot. Then again…that could take a long time… :-\
Vengeance is a good one. I remember liking it a lot. I don’t know about #4 but… ![]()
Hopefully it will change, that would mean some good ones are in store… and taking a long time is a good thing in my book. One of the things I’ve learned to enjoy about spaghettis is the fact that the supply is almost in-exhaustible
oh is it ever… Being a fan of other film genres this one certainly has a near bottomless pit of movies to choose from. Tons of actors - some one-offs, a lot of genre regulars and plenty of styles and sub-genres to choose from.
I guess eventually I have to make my list…

I’m always intrigued. What changes are their to your previous one AceHigh? What’s in, What’s out, What’s moved about?
I bumped DRAH up into the top 10 from it’s previous #12 ranking. The more I see it, the better it becomes. Watched Navajo Joe for the first time a few months ago and it’s top 10 material IMO. Also saw Blindman recently for the first time and definitely top 15 for me. Rewatched Cemetery Without Crosses and decided its top 20 for sure. Knocked out were #20 Pistoleros, #15 Sono Sartana, il Vostro Becchino, and #13 Massacre Time(had it ranked too high in the first place). - Appreciate it - Oh, and by the way, GBU is not only my favorite SW BY FAR, it’s also my favorite film in any genre.
I finally managed to craft my list:
- The Great Silence
- The Good, The Bad And The Ugly
- Duck you Sucker
- Django
- Once Upon A Time In The West
- Fistful of Dollars
- Light The Fuse… Sartana Is Coming
- For A Few Dollars More
- My Name Is Nobody
- A Bullet For The General
- Death Rides A Horse
- The Mercenary
- California
- The Dirty Outlaws
- Kill And Pray
- I’ll Sell My Skin Dearly
- Face To Face
- The Big Gundown
- They Call Him Cemetery
- And God Said To Cain
Maybe there will be some changes someday, so what, we’ll see…

Runners up - Man Of The East, Captain Apache, Django Shoots First, Blindman, The Man Called Noon and The Fighting Fists Of Shanghai Joe, Red Sun
Nice pick 8)
Hey Karnstein,
Captain Apache is generally considered as an Euro western. For the official voting I would prefer to have a “real” SW instead.
So maybe you like to pick one of your runners up.
VERY interesti list. Especially with Sartana in the Valley of death, which I don’t dislike. Also with Man of the East so high. Some really don’t like it but I haven’t seen i. I do like Man Called Noon though.
Are we talkin’ about the same Sartana in the valley of death? ???
Okay, Berger is always a safe bet, and since the Muppet Show I’ve been a fan on funny puppets as well, but c’mon guys… ;D
Well I just moved Scalps to no 5 on my list, I won’t change it for a while now.
Thanks for mentioning it.
- Django
- The Great Silence
- Compañeros
- Keoma
- Face to Face
- Mannaja
- Massacre Time
- Django the Bastard
- Day of Anger

Interesting list
Corbucci king, Leone not even crown prince …
I often wonder, late at night, when I can’t catch my sleep, how things will be in the sixties of this century, when those films celebrate their centenary
Oh please, my usual request also to you, make it up to 20 films.
