[quote=“Jill, post:60, topic:176”]God’s Gun is really so terrible? 
But… Lee Van Cleef and Jack Palance. They are the best kind of SW actors… or the story is bad?[/quote]
Bad story, badly made. Not Lee or Jack’s fault.

On the Third Day Arrived the Crow
This is one baaaad spaghetti.
Gonna quote myself from the “Seen western”-thread:
On the paper it sounds fine. William Berger playing this notorius gunslinger The Crow. How COULD it be bad? But it is. Willam Berger turns up around 1 hour into the movie clearly having been hired for a couple of hours to do the movie. So what we get is a bunch of shots: William Berger sitting on his horse making a face that only William Berger can. William Berger walking around looking. William Berger looking through a window, shooting etc. Not once did I see him on screen with any other actor. Clearly his scenes were filmed beforehand or after the other actors did their job. Bloody awful.
Up till now this has to be the worst and most boring spaghetti western I’ve watched. Don’t worry about Demofilo Fidano who actually has made some pretty decent spaghettis that are seldom boring no matter what his reputation is, it’s Gianni Crea you have to beware of.

Lincoln Tate who also star in the film incidentally or perhaps it’s not incidentally also star in another of the worst SW’s of all time “Acquasanta Joe”
I agree with AvatarDK, On the Third Day… is possibly the worst sw I’ve seen. But I have to admit that it does have some kind of “Ed Wood spirit” being so bad that it is actually quite funny film to watch. It seems to me like they couldn’t even make the film full length so they added the last 15 minutes from another Crea film which doesn’t have anything to do with the rest of the film.
Acquasanta joe was just ok to me.

… it’s Gianni Crea you have to beware of.[/quote]
You got that right ! Gianni Crea (Il Magnifico west, …E il terzo giorno arrivò il corvo, La Legge della violenza, Se t’incontro t’ammazzo, I Sette del gruppo selvaggio) and Franco Lattanzi (Sei bounty killers per una strage, La Tigre venuta dal fiume Kwai, Il Giustiziere di Dio) are the worst directors with the worst movies concerning SW !!!
Reviving an older thread here, but my worst is Kid Vengeance.
I was all ready to say White Comanche, but as a couple posters pointed out, it does have it’s moments. So unintentionally bad that I like it. And you’ve got to give it points, Turner Classic Movies showed it a few times. 
WORST EVER SPAGHETTI WESTERN (S)
TRINITY IS BACK AGAIN 75 Terence Hill , Miou Miou, Klaus Kinski
My vote for this mess is 5.5 out of 20
WATCH OUT WE’RE MAD 74 Terence Hill , Bud Spencer
My vote for this oater is 5 out of 20
Both films above were dire, boring , unfunny, wooden as a sequoia tree,sleep causing
And similar IDIOTIC Slapstick “comedy SWs” were ATROCIOUS and SHAMED The Genre.
VERY GOOD/EXCELLENT SWs that have been UNFAIRLY criticised and defamed… ???
AQUASANTA JOE 71 Richard Harrison, Ty Hardin , Lincoln Tate
This is actually an accomplished SW set during the USA Civil war as a group of ex
soldiers plan to rob a bank using a cannon.
Very good characters with SW Great Richard Harrison working well with Ty Hardin and
Lincoln Tate (as Aquasanta Joe). Overall a well made enjoyable , serious SW.
My Vote for AQUASANTA JOE 1970 is 13 out of 20.
ON THE THIRD DAY ARRIVED THE CROW 73 Lincoln tate , William Berger, F.Mannoia
A serious revenge western with action, plot , music and a late appearance by the crow
Fans of William Berger may be disappointed with his brief screen time but Lincoln Tate
is the real star and is much better than Berger in this film. Good fun all round.
My vote for ON THE THIRD DAY CROW 73 is 13.5 out of 20.
SAVAGE GUNS/HIS NAME WAS SAM WALLACH 71 Robert Woods, Lincoln Tate, DS.
Entertaining, absorbing SW revenger sees Robert Woods as Wallach set out to kill
a vicious sadistic bandit who murdered his brother and others.
Again a well made SW with fine cast, plot, music and direction.
My Vote for SAVAGE GUNS 71 is 14 out of 20. :
:-*
WHITE COMANCHE 1968 William Shatner , Joseph Cotten, Rosanna Yanni
A small budget quickie western shot while William Shatner was on leave from his
masterpiece classic STAR TREK 66-69.
This is a well written, acted, directed SW concerning the plight of Red Indians.
My vote for WHITE COMANCHE 1968 is 14.5 out of 20
KID VENGEANCE 1977 Lee Van Cleef, Jim Brown , Leif Garrett
Extremely well acted, plotted and directed revenge SW concerns a young man Garrett
whose family were massacred by evil Van Cleef and his gang.
Garrett joins up with gold prospector Jim Brown who also has grievances and they
ride out for maximum revenge. Also known as TAKE A HARD RIDE 2, superb film.
My vote for KID VENGEANCE is 15 out of 20.
- Acquasanta Joe a serious movie?
- Kid Vengeance extremely well acted?
- Watch out we’re mad a spaghetti western?
- Whit Comanche well written, acted, directed?
I’ll go on:
On The Third Day Arrived The Crow -> Good fun all around? You got to be kidding. I’m a big spaghetti western fan AND Berger is one of my favourites but this IS a piece of crap. Boring. Boring. Boring and extremely stupid. See my ‘review’ of it above.
And how can you give one of the spaghettis you consider the worst 15 out of 20 points, does that mean that the rest gets 15 points and above. Surely you must be joking.
It’s alright to be a big fan but not at the cost of any critical sense
Most comedy spaghettis were abysmal. Exceptions are, of course, the Trinity movies and - to a certain degree - Ben and Charley and My Name is Nobody (plus maybe one or two I didn’t think of). It’s hard to pick the worst one, but I think I’ll go for DUE FRATELLI IN UN POSTO CHIAMATO TRINITA’/Two brothers in a place called Trinity : two brothers, one a priest, not a shooting/fighting one, but a praying one (now in a spaghetti that is a bad idea !).
Concerning the serious spaghettis:
‘God’s Gun’ was bad, no question about that, but somehow I wasn’t as bored as Lee and Jack were when making it. ‘White Comanche’ looked like a bad joke, but at least I had a few laughs. ‘Four of the Apocalypse’ was disastrous, looked like a sixties art-house movie in which all actors (as well as the crew) were either stoned or loaded, or both. Arizona Colt si scatenò e li fece fuori tutti was a predictable misfire: what an idea, the wooden, dirty Steffen stepping into the boots of lively, clean-shaven Gemma …
But the worst of all … ???
Still looking for the titles of some turkeys I saw in the course of the decades.

Point made but I don’t think it qualifies as a western…
Worst SW I ever saw? Probably some comedy watched with no expectations and then forgotten with no traces left. The worst viewing experience might be THE BEAST directed by Mario Costa. It’s hard to explain. Usually I enjoy low-budget oddities, downbeat endings and sleazy characters played by Klaus Kinski, but there was something very tired and foul about the whole thing and it became progressively more depressing. In his autobiography Kinski remembers the making of this movie as the worst western experience of his career.
Little Rite nel west… terrible musical western
Sheriff of Rocksprings… I like Richard Harrison and Donal O´Brien bute the plot @#$%

NO Avatar you have NOT read , understood or quoted what I SAID at all !!
The films I gave 13 out of 20 , 15 out of 20 are NOT “worse” or “bad” AT ALL !
I have said clearly that these SWs were EXCELLENT and unfairly DEFAMED !!
It is always down to opinions but I pointed out clearly the abysmal, poor films
as being the atrocious, unfunny Terence Hill type “sw comedies”.
I then analysed some previously defamed/unfairly criticised SWs
AQUASANTA JOE 70 , WHITE COMANCHE 1968 , SAM WALLACH 1970 etc
and I described why I saw them and rated them as GOOD or VERY GOOD.
I have the ON THIRD DAY CROW ARRIVED 73 and it was Quite GOOD and
if you found it “boring” that is your right but you have NOT explained Why??
I have said that the film was Ok and Lincoln Tate was the real star, it was
serious not a comedy etc etc and I gave it a score out of 20.
I wish people would READ UNDERSTAND and QUOTE properly…
??? Scherf you been playing your loud metal again ?? ??? Dear oh dear oh dear me.
ANTHONY STEFFEN is one of the all time great, prolific, talented, classic SW STARS !!
Where is this “wooden and dirty” where you talking about Jean Louis Trintignant ??
I mean if you were saying that JL Trintignant was “wooden and dirty” in the
Great Silence 1968 and that ruined a quite good film then i would AGREE.
Giuliano Gemma was in some good SWs but Gemma is nowhere near the talent or
the presence of ANTHONY STEFFEN !!! :’( :o
SARTANA DJANGO have you posted your top20? i would be difinitely interested in seeing it.
@ SARTANA DJANGO MC CLOUD EURO GIALLOS FOREVER POSTS 52 WHAT’S THE WORST YOU SAW

Ah I misunderstood. I beg your pardon

Oh yes I did, in a post a couple of steps up from yours. But of course you are right entitled to your opinion, there are some spaghetti westerns I consider fine which are considered trash by other members on this board, that’s life
Haha, come on SD. Anthony Steffen was a wooden actor. His best role probably was Django the Bastard, because he actually acted like a corpse. I have no problem with his acting. It can be very effective, but that doesn’t take away the fact that he was a wooden actor.
Ha Ha Ha Bad Lt I like your sarcasm and wit. ;D
I have watched numerous EXCELLENT High quality Popular SWs/Horror/Giallos
with
ANTHONY STEFFEN or Antonio De Teffe
I have NEVER seen him as “wooden” ,“stiff” or “poor” as an ACTOR on screen
My analysis of Anthony Steffen is that he has made over 95% EXCELLENT
High quality, popular, money making SWS/Horror/Giallos/Thrillers and
nearly EVERY FILM he has starred in I value highly and enjoy immensely…
I found Anthony Steffen very believable, animated, exciting, talented on FILM.
WHY ?? ARE The “ACTORS” below NOT " wooden" “stiff” “dull” “lifeless” ???
Robert De Niro ??? His range seems to be 2 expressions and a New York
sort of “talkin’ to me buster?” sort of "acting " “ability”
I find that on De Niro I “like” about 4 % of his films . STEFFEN I like 95% plus.
Wooden Allen ??? His “range” seems to be solely a neurotic Religious
unfunny little man of no consequence.
I find that I “like” about 1 % of Wooden Allen films. STEFFEN I like 95% plus.
Meryl Streep ??? Her “range” seems to be endless, yawn yawn dramas
lacking any mystery, suspense, excitement, yawn yawn
I find that I “like” about 2 % of Meryl Streep Films. STEFFEN I LIKE over 95%.
Humphrey Bogart ??? His Range seemes to be tedious, street talking roughs
with a voice affected by Bogey smoking 300 fags a day.
I find that I “like” about 3 % of Hump. Bogart Films. STEFFEN I like 95% +
ANTHONY STEFFEN has played many many wonderful, heroic, great ROLES
and I have always found him very talented, credible, top class UNLIKE the
DeNiro, Allen, Streep, Bogart and similar fodder I have to suffer far too often. ??? :
