One of my favourite scenes is the final shootout, when the rifle gets kicked through the air. This is really big entertainment!
That’s btw the intention of our forum’s voting: our favourites.
The subjective best, not the “objective best” (whatever that may be).
have a look at my top20 ![]()
I watched Companeros some time ago and was put-off by the obvious Che Guevara stuff, so I decided to give it another whirl (“forgetting” about the political intentions of the director) and found it quite enjoyable, with some truly great scenes. I know I’m in trouble when I start singing the theme…
I think I might even drop The Fury of Johnny Kid and stick Companeros in its place…
I haven’t seen The Great Silence.
My List:
1º-The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (El bueno, el feo y el malo)
2º- Per qualche dollaro in più (La Muerte tenía un precio)

17º- Se incontri Sartana prega per la tua morte
18º- Gli specialisti
19º- I Giorni dellïra (El dia de la Ira)

Nice to see Garringo getting a nod.

Beautiful Spanish titles - Like thirsty Dogs, Death had its price, Until his hour strikes …
But if I’m not mistaken, these two are the only ones that really can be counted as Spanish eurowesterns. So these two are the best, according to a Spanish genre expert?
Interesting.
Haven’t seen Antes llega la Muerte - one to look forward to
“Garringo” is a Spanish director, and my spaghetti is the best “Spanish”, tied with “Cut Throats Nine”, although the latter film is a spaghetti / horror.
My mistake
A Marchent Movie, sure, as Spanish as Sevilla
Confession: haven’t seen it!
I’m deeply ashamed. Got some serious work to do

Welcome Tyht. Nice to see Django at 3 and Companeros at 5 (love both of them, I put them at 1 and 3).
Nice list Tyht - you must be a huge fan of Navajo Joe to list it there twice. Great movie glad to see another fan of it.
Thank you all!
“A Fistful of Dollars” - I don’t like this movie(but I like original movie - “Bodyguard” of Akiro Kurosawa).
My favorite actors - Klaus Kinski, Lee van Cleef & Tomas Millian

Any particular reason you don’t like “A Fistful of Dollars”? And isn’t it based on Kurosawa’s “Yojimbo”, and not “Bodyguard”?
Yojimbo means bodyguard
