That looks pretty cool! Some of those trailers are pretty rare. I actually have the SW VHS of A FEW BULLETS MORE aka THE MAN WHO KILLED BILLY THE KID, it's a beat-to-hell letterboxed print (have a much better fandub too). I'm gonna order that trailer comp, thanks for the heads-up.

What do you guys think of "Massacre Time"? I didn't have real high hopes when I put it on (This may sound backwards, but I figured that with the involvement of so many people with huge followings -- Fulci, di Leo, Hilton and Nero -- that if it was any good I would have heard more about it.) But anyway I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was really fun seeing Hilton play a role so for out of the range I usually see him in.

SW's are one area of eurocult film that I have barely scratched the surface -- so I've been on a little bit of a kick lately.

If this release looks like the Import it's a must buy for fans.

I prefer DOC WEST and TRIGGERMAN over My Name Is Nobody anyday.

I like it a lot, it's easily my favorite of Fulci's three spaghetti westerns - the other two are FOUR OF THE APOCALYPSE and SILVER SADDLE. I've said before I wish he had made a few more at this time (the other two are from the mid 70s). Good story and Fulci gets to indulge in his penchant for sadism with that whipping. I think the final scenes are among the most poetic in the genre, along with the fantastic music it's one of my all-time favorite sequences.

I've been praying to the Beat/Quartet/Digitmovies gods for years now that SOMEONE will release Lallo Gori's score with Sergio Endrigo's title theme. One of my favorite SW opening numbers of all time!

Oh my god.

They're going to show CEMETERY WITHOUT CROSSES on the big screen. Twice. Twice.

Are you going?

[Ian Jane Administrator Find all posts View Profile Close Ian Jane]

I'm tempted, but it's all going to depend on my schedule (Sept. and Oct. are unusually busy months for me).

[Richard--W a straight arrow Find all posts View Profile Close Richard--W]

You owe it to yourself to at least see CEMETERY WITHOUT CROSSES, Ian.

I also want to know if it's being projected from a good 35mm print or a DVD. Because I've got the German DVD, so I don't need a digital projection.
