There will be a good release NEXT YEAR from Koch Media!
Run Man Run … is a good one! Maybe a bit weaker as Big Gundown or Face to Face but still pretty entertaining.

Yeah I’m a Run Man Run fan too. Although it doesn’t get too much love around here.
Run Man Run is still in our top 20, so there is a bit love for the runner here (even if it’s now on the brink to become a runner up).
It has always amazed me how it is still there in the top 20. Whenever it gets mentioned it always appears that most folk are not so keen on it. I’ve often wondered if it just benefits from the ‘Blue Underground effect’.

Fasthand, Long Ride To Hell and Long Days Of Vengeance aren’t that popular, are they? Anyway I didn’t like God Forgives, I Don’t.
Haha! And that one I haven’t seen, so i’ll have to reserve judgement on his irritation factor there. To be honest, i like him in Django Kill, Face To Face, Big Gundown (mostly), Designated Victim and Identification Of A Woman. Most irritating for me was Almost Human, but everything else was a close runner up. It’s funny, as when i was first getting my hands on some spags when i was younger, i really the liked the guy!
Wow. Where do I start? RMR seems to be in the lead for most unviewed overall. It’s definately Big Gundown’s misbehaved little brother that irritates people. Worth a watch though. FOTA really gets my goat though. Awesome Millian performance in a tough to watch Pasta. I still have no idea where Fulci was going with that one. I know it gets love around here but not from me. Ace High is good but I have not seen Boot Hill yet (fucking clowns!). I started watching Tepepa but was soooo bored I fell asleep. I will attempt another view somenight (maybe when I have trouble sleeping ;)) One Silver Dollar is another on my list.
Maybe. Or maybe probably.
RMR was more often named in the early days of our voting:
14 Il mio nome e Nessuno 280
15 Se sei vivo spara 249
16 Corri, uomo, corri 221
17 I giorni dell’ ira 211
18 Keoma 209
19 Ehi amico! C’e Sabata, hai chiuso! 205
20 Une corde, un colt 195
This was the first top 20 list counting 20 films back in Feb 07. Since then RMR hasn’t earned much more points and therefore loses constantly ground, and is now far away from this group of films:
14 My Name is Nobody Leone, Sergio/Valerii, T. 407
15 Day of Anger Valerii, Tonino 374
16 Keoma Castellari, Enzo G. 348
17 Cemetery Without Crosses Hossein, Robert 346
18 Django Kill…If You Live, Shoot! Questi, Giulio 344
19 Run Man, Run Sollima, Sergio 260
20 Blindman Baldi, Ferdinando 254
21 Sabata Parolini, Gianfranco 253
22 The Return of Ringo Tessari, Duccio 237
23 If You Meet Sartana Pray for Your Death Parolini, Gianfranco 229
And will soon tumble out of the top 20.
But I like RMR, and I think it’s only a tiny bit weaker than The Big Gundown. And I prefer RMR to Face to Face, which is more ambitious, but has also a lot of failings.
I also think that Milian is often annoying, but in RMR his mannerisms fit the role.
IMO RMR suffers from the second lead actor next to Tomas Milian. More or less you need a strong second lead to calm Tomas down. Lee Van Cleef was perfect in Big Gundown (as well as Franco Nero in Companeros!). Though William Berger would have been good in RMR.
Face to Face is a different more sinister kind of movie.
And I haven’t seen Ace High ;). I started watching Boot Hill sometime but shut it off. It’s anyway available at Classic Cinema Online and that’s where I started watching it. Will try again.
I really liked Tomas in Face To Face and Compañeros.

I also think that both RMR and FtF suffer a bit from not having van Cleef in the roles of Berger and O’Brian (though O’Brian is not bad, but Lee would have been better).
I think Van Cleef did so many other SWs that it’s nice to see someone like O’Brian for a change
I also think Che Guevara look-alike Milian was perfect for the times and in the roles he did, and I really like his voice, always a pleasure to hear him speak english
Che Guevara
I agree about that he’s similar too Che Guevara:
And I also think Berger suits perfect in Face To Face.
I also like Berger, in all his SW roles, he is definitely also one of the most important SW actors
I forgot about Django Kill, Milian’s OK in that too.

I did - My Samshit (HT THQ25) has a hack there which I tried - I got no change, but the only reply reckons that the fellah got it to make it so his player now won’t play region-frees … tricky business.
Thanks anyway.

Yes, unfortunately not all players are hackable. I have a Hitachi DVD/VHS combo that has no known hack as far as I can tell.
