Waco is a 1966 American Technicolor Western film directed by
R. G. Springsteen starring Howard Keel, Jane Russell, Brian Donlevy, Wendell
Corey, John Smith and Terry Moore.
A town in Wyoming is up in arms. Somebody has shot the
sheriff, Billy Kelly, and things are so bad that preacher Sam Stone and
businessman George Gates implore the mayor, Ned West, to bring in outside help.
They arrange for a gunfighter called "Waco" to be
pardoned by the governor and sprung from jail. Waco rides to town and
immediately cleans it up, defying boss Joe Gore by becoming sheriff, firing the
deputy and bringing in old partner Ace Ross to be by his side.
Preacher Stone is happy but wife Jill is not. She used to be
involved with Waco, who isn't going to like it that she got married while he
was behind bars.
Also unhappy is rancher Ma Jenner, whose boys Ike and Pete
seek revenge on her behalf because Waco killed their brother. And mayor West
has troubles of his own because of an attack on his daughter Patricia.
It all comes down to a gunfight. Waco is outnumbered,
particularly after Ace chickens out and abandons him, but the mayor and
preacher come to his aid. Gore and the Jenners end up dead, but so does Stone,
which means Jill and Waco can be together again.

Storyline Kill the Poker Player | Creeping Death 1972
KILL THE POKER PLAYER is the title of the American release
of this 1972 spaghetti western, a fairly innocuous one as spaghettis go. But
within the film credits, it had a title I thought much better: Creeping Death.
That comes from the killer’s use of poisonous snakes.
The movie opens with a bank robbery, one million dollars.
The stick-up man uses a six gun with a silencer attached (don’t explain them).
After relieving them of the cash, he shoots the president and two clerks. As
it’s a windy day, the little sound he makes with his silenced gun is covered. In
the saloon, a confederate decked out as a union officer is on hand. The bank
president,images not dead, staggers out with a gun. We learn there’s a third
man, unseen, who shoots the bank man. The Union officer guns down those in the
bar when they react and the two men beat it out of town.
Shortly they are joined by the third man while eating. The
camera angle, the big hat, and never showing him from the front, guarantee we
will not know the man. The first two man wake up later to find poisonous snakes
sitting on their chests.
That’s the mystery of this film. Who is the third man that
cold-blood murdered his partners?
Robert Wood rides into town and identifies himself as
Jonathan Pinkerton, an agent for Lloyd’s of London who’d insured the bank
money. It’s his job to find thaat third man and the money. a two hundred
thousand dollar reward is on the line.
A number of suspects are offered. The sheriff Lewis
Burton(Frank Braña), who Pinkerton witnesses shooting down an outlaw he’d
induced to surrender, Doctor Norton( Ernesto Colli), a zoologist who
specializes in snakes would seem the obvious suspect. Third on the list is a
saloon owner(Carlo Gaddi) and his girl friend(Nieves Navarro, billed as Susan
Scott), and a local rancher, Clinton( Ivano Staccioli ), who claims to be broke
from rustling, horse thievery, and bad poker playing.
Halfway through we learn Pinkerton is really Alan Fields, a
Federal agent brought in on the case.
Someone wants him off the case though as he’s constantly
challenged by groups of men. Forynately he’s handy with his fists and gun,
whatever’s needed.
Then the suspects start getting knocked off and Fields is
framed for them. But he keeps pushing until the third man reveals himself.

runs for Tombstone City Sheriff, but is ambushed and maimed by some of
Clanton's hired guns. Morgan elects to take the job in his brother's place,
but, unlike his brother, he is killed.

the law himself more than once, is terminally ill with tuberculosis and is
admitted into a Colorado sanitarium. Earp intends to clear out of Tombstone
with what's left of his family and move to California, but changes his mind
upon being appointed a federal marshal for the territory.
Guns blazing, Earp and his posse ruthlessly hunt and kill

Johnny Liston returns from twelve years of imprisonment for
a crime he didn't commit to find his brother, Sartana, their home town and
surrounding area with his band of hoodlums. What's more, Sartana has taken
Johnny's erstwhile sweetheart, Manuela, as his woman and spends all his free
time when he is not extorting cash from the local townsfolk beating her or
whipping her mute brother, Jerry. Johnny rescues local beauty Joselita Rogers
from the clutches of some banditos but she shuns him when she discovers his
identity as it was for the murder of her father that Johnny was convicted.
Johnny is appalled by his brother's reign of terror and sets out to thwart his
activities but gets no support, either from the townsfolk or his embittered
mother who dotes on Sartana and vilifies Johnny for being 'weak'. Twisted
family loyalties ensure that neither brother will openly attack the other but
they struggle against each other until their mother's death when all bets are
off and a showdown is inevitable.
Alex Cox, in his recent book, described $1000 on the Black
as visually fantastical, with no concession to that dull and deadly notion,
'realism'. For me Cox hits the nail on the head in terms of what makes this
film appealing. It has melodrama in big heaped spoonfuls, a bad guy who is
deliciously bad, a good guy we can root for and a mad, embittered matriarch in
a big house whose malicious influence pervades all. All this acted with an
unmistakeable relish in the Italian style where the term 'less is more' is
never remotely considered. Everyone involved contributes their part here but,
as mentioned above, Gianni Garko as the evil brother Sartana is very much first
among equals.
This is not the Sartana character which became synoymous
with Garko in the years to come but a very different animal. Psychotic,
sadistic and Oedipal this Sartana is a whip wielding nut case who loves his
mother and hates everyone else and whose blonde, blue eyed good looks are in
stark contrast to his pseudo Mexican bandit persona. Garko plays the role well
and proves beyond doubt that he was one of the few Spaghetti stars who was capable
of inhabiting any character he chose. A true actor, he is as convincing here as
the heavy as he was in any of his more usual good guy parts and his passionate,
exuberant approach to this particular role works as a great foil to Anthony
Steffen's stone faced hero. The two make a very effective pairing and between
them create an absorbing spectacle. Steffen is...well...Steffen, and that's
just fine. He does what is required and the part suits his style well. Tony was
never a man who was going to challenge anyone in the acting stakes so it is not
surprising that he is upstaged by Garko here but he performs well and brings
sufficient steel to his character. He also performs his action scenes with his
usual skill. This is where Steffen is at his best and he doesn't disappoint.

Cannon for Cordoba is a western film that was released in
1970. Filmed in Spain, the larger part of the movie takes place in Mexico in
1912. Directed by Paul Wendkos, it stars George Peppard, Pete Duel, Giovanna
Ralli, and Raf Vallone
Storyline Cannon for Cordoba 1970
It is 1912 and groups of Mexican revolutionaries have been
attacking towns on both sides of the Mexican-American border. The most powerful
of these groups is led by a former Mexican army general, Héctor Cordoba. When a
surprise attack results in six cannons falling into the hands of Cordoba and
his men, the United States government puts General John J. "Blackjack"
Pershing (John Russell) in charge of seeing that the cannons will never be used
against the American people. Pershing turns to Captain Rod Douglas (George
Peppard), instructing him to gather a group of men to take part in the
dangerous mission into the heart of the Cordoba's territory.
The first man to sign up for the job is Jackson Harkness
(Don Gordon), a soldier who has worked with Douglas before. At the beginning of
the film, Harkness has to stand by and watch as his brother is tortured and
killed by Cordoba. Douglas ordered him not to step in because they were
undercover as sympathizers in the enemy camp and could not afford to make their
true intentions known. As a result, Harkness vows vengeance on the captain and
will not leave his side until the opportunity presents itself.
The next two men that Douglas chooses for the operation are
Andy Rice (Pete Duel) and Peter (Nico Minardos), who have just broken out of
the army jail when Douglas arrives with the orders for their release. The
captain now has all of the men that he feels are necessary for getting the job
done. However, a Mexican lieutenant, Antonio Gutierrez(Gabriele Tinti), who
holds a personal grudge against Cordoba, approaches him and demands to be part
of the operation. He tells Douglas that he knows a woman, Leonora
Cristobal(Giovanna Ralli) who, for her own reasons, wishes to see Cordoba dead.
If the captain includes him in the mission, she will help them by working her
way into Cordoba’s confidence and getting him alone so that he will be vulnerable
when they make their move.
Antonio and Leonora arrive at Cordoba’s camp first. Leonora,
who learns that the Mexican government wants to capture Cordoba alive, betrays
Antonio and informs the bandit leader of his intentions, hoping that he will reward
her for what she has done by allowing her to get closer to him, giving her the
opportunity to kill him herself.
When Douglas, Andy, Peter, and Harkness arrive at the camp,
posing as sympathizers, they hear of what Leonora has done and decide that they
have to act quickly. Douglas starts a fight with one of the Mexican men, so as
to be put in jail, where he can help Antonio to escape. That night, Andy,
disguised as a Mexican guards, breaks both of the men out of jail so that the
operation can proceed. Douglas goes to Cordoba’s room, where he finds him alone
with Leonora. She betrayed Antonio but she still did the job she was supposed
to do. Meanwhile, Jackson and Peter have turned the cannons on the camp and
begin to fire, while Andy and Antonio shoot flares into the buildings. Chaos
ensues and the group of men, along with Leonora and their prisoner, Cordoba,
attempt to ride out of the camp. Peter, Antonio, and Andy are killed in the
process, and Cordoba is wounded.
The next morning, miles away from the camp, the diminished
group stops to rest. When Douglas goes off by himself, Harkness sees his
opportunity to avenge his brother. He follows the captain, demands that he turn
around, and draws his gun. As Douglas walks unflinchingly toward him, however,
he is unable to shoot and, instead, punches him. All now forgiven, the two men
walk back to where Leonora waits. Cordoba has died from the wound he received
the previous night. They are not able to bring him back alive, as the
government had wanted, but the cannons were destroyed and their mission is
complete.
Gunslinger Anthony Steffen comes home from the Civil War to
find a bandit has slaughtered his family and kidnapped his young son. Next time
they meet, the son has grown up to be the bandit’s cold-blooded lieutenant,
although neither Steffen nor the son knows the other’s identity. It’s sort of
like a Greek tragedy with dreadful dubbing and lots of punching.
This one overcomes muddled storytelling and unexceptional
direction via a strong plot and some pretty sweet fight sequences, a barroom
whip battle and a hook duel in a barn being particular stand-outs. Euro-Western
mainstay Steffen is just OK in the lead, but a dead-eyed Roberto Miali and a
radiant Elisa Montes make stronger impressions as the stolen son and his doomed
love interest.

The Proud Rebel is a 1958 Technicolor Western film directed
by Michael Curtiz, with a screenplay by Joseph Petracca and Lillie Hayward that
was based on a story by James Edward Grant. It is the story of a widowed
Confederate veteran and his mute son who struggle to make a new life among
sometimes hostile neighbors in the Midwest. Despite the implications of the
title, the main character in "The Proud Rebel" does not dwell much on
his Southern past, but finds his life complicated by sectional prejudice.
The film stars Alan Ladd, Olivia de Havilland, Dean Jagger,
David Ladd and Cecil Kellaway and co-stars Harry Dean Stanton (credited as Dean
Stanton) in an early film appearance. "The Proud Rebel" influenced
the famous Indian artist Kishore Kumar to make "Door Gagan Ki Chhaon
mein" in 1964. It starred his real-life son Amit Kumar playing the role of
the mute son.
Storyline The Proud Rebel 1958
A former Confederate soldier, John Chandler (Alan Ladd) has
come to an Illinois town with his 10-year-old son David (David Ladd) to see Dr.
Enos Davis (Cecil Kellaway). The boy was struck mute after witnessing his
mother's death in a fire, and hasn't spoken a word since. Dr. Davis recommends
an operation by a doctor he knows in Minnesota.
With a flock of sheep blocking their path, John has their
expertly trained dog Lance clear the way. The sheep belong to rancher Harry
Burleigh (Dean Jagger) and his sons, Jeb (Harry Dean Stanton) and Tom (Tom
Pittman), who try to steal the dog. John fights them while a passing stranger,
Linnett Moore (Olivia de Havilland), holds the child. Harry knocks out John,
pours whiskey on him, then tells the sheriff about being attacked by a drunk.
John must pay $30 or serve 30 days in jail. Linnett
intervenes, suggesting to the sheriff, that Chandler can work off the debt on
her farm. In exchange she offers to cover the fine, so that he will be
released. Chandler disagrees at first, but is won over by her decency. Over the
course of time, he discovers that Linnett is being pressured by the overbearing
Burleigh to sell her land. It transpires that her land is blocking the easy
passage of his sheep to pasture and the railroad. Gradually, John and Linnett
grow closer, despite John determined to remain aloof, knowing he and his son
will leave soon.
A trip to Minnesota for treatment will be expensive. John
won't accept offers for the valuable dog, which the boy loves, but after the
boy is taunted and roughed up by local children, John decides to sell Lance
after all to finance his son's trip. He asks Linnett to accompany the boy up
north while he rebuilds the barn, burned down by the Burleighs' men in an
attempt to pressure Linnett to sell.
The operation doesn't work, and David is devastated to
return home and find the dog is no longer theirs. John goes to the Burleighs to
try to get it back and finds the dog being mistreated by them. Harry gives the
dog back, but has his sons prepared to shoot John as a thief. The boy shouts
out to save his father's life. In the end, John shoots Harry and his older son,
then returns to Linnett with the dog and David, now able to speak.
All Out (1968) - Tutto per tutto (original title) is a 1968 Italian Spaghetti Western movies
Johnny Sweet(Mark Damon) and Owl(John Ireland) join forces
with two Mexicans Paco(Eduardo Fajardo) and Gomez to find a cache of gold.They
manage to track down a mysterious Indian known as Copperface who had snatched
and hidden the stolen gold from bandit leader Caranza(Fernando Sancho) in
retaliation for Caranza stealing his devious wife Maria.But once this very
uneasy alliance gets the gold the story turns into a series of double crosses
as each man tries to seize all the gold for himself and in the tradition of GBU
Gomez even says to Paco at one point "for the men in this world there are
two kinds,those that look at the gold and those that take it!".
This is a mildly entertaining sw with plenty of humour
alongside a healthy serving of action and gun duels though would have benefited
from the pace being upped a bit in various places.Its an excellent cast,Damon
and Ireland are great together and has a fine heavily Morricone influenced
musical score.
In 18th century upstate New York, a quarrelsome white man
named Butler seeks to foment war with the Indians, to rid the Mohawk Valley of
the natives and settlers he despises. He goes to the Iroquois chef Kowanen to
warn him about a party of armed white settlers. Kowanen shows no concern, but
his son Keoga and brave Rokhawah feel otherwise and plot a raid to steal the
settlers' muskets. They are assisted by Keoga's sister Onida, but many Indians
end up killed and Onida captured.
An artist, Jonathan Adams, has arrived from Boston,
commissioned to do paintings and portraits. He is joined by sweetheart Cynthia
Stanhope, a society lady from Boston, and attracted to Greta Jones, a local
barmaid. But when he escorts Onida from the fort back to her people, he
develops a romantic interest in her instead. Adams also earns the respect and
trust of Kowanen as he paints the chief's portrait and Keoga comes to admire
Adams' fighting prowess. Kowanen, seeking peace with the white settlers, offers
to have his son Keoga accompany Adams back to the fort, as a sign of good
faith.
As the two peace emissaries are en route to the fort, Butler
stages an ambush, murdering Keoga. Chief Kowanen's men hold the whites
responsible and take Adams captive, but he escapes, aided by Onida. When Adams
finally reaches the fort, he reveals Butler's perfidy. As the enraged Indians
attack, Butler is cast out of the besieged fort and meets his end in a hail of
Indian arrows. A truce is declared, and while Cynthia goes back to Boston with
his works of art, Adams remains behind to be with Onida.

Storyline Gunman Sent by God (1968) - Anthony Steffen
It's 1880 and a gang is terrorizing Montana. During a
nightly raid on a ranch, many red shirted farmhands get killed, who instead of
simply falling to the ground all jump in the air first. One guy is only shot in
the arm, leading us to think he must be important. This is further made clear
by the fact that when he goes inside, a spotlight seems to follow him around.
But ultimately, even he gets murdered in front of his little boy Tony, starting
off yet another by the numbers story of revenge. This also marks the first use
of the film's inventive cross cutting (from the murder scene to a circus number
in one fell swoop).
Tony is now being minded by a black butler and idolizing
circus cowboy Roy Kerry. This guy already has some trauma's of his own because
people are constantly trying to test his abilities. Kerry inadvertently gets
mixed up with the cattle rustling gang and he does not get much respecto
either, being just a circus patsy. You can tell it's just about time for the
unavoidable bar brawl, complete with two sound effect. Accompanying this is a
loud and overpowering score (making extensive use of a Hammond organ) that
would not sound out of place in a Hammer Horror film.
Senor Roy gets bullied and humiliated like a little boy, for
even in the old west, fame was fickle and guess what? He turns the other cheek
and takes up drinking. This keeps up until the return of tiny Tony, for some
reason dressed in a cooky kind of bus conductors uniform. Anyone who's ever
seen a spaghetti Western before will realize there is a flashback coming up
revealing that the kid and the gunslinger now share a common enemy. Roy finally
decides to use his god given talents to break several commandments.
Unfortunately the whole circus comes to Lewis Town, just in time to get in the
way of the big shoot out and Shane homage.

Dead Men Don't Make Shadows, aka Stranger That Kneels Beside
the Shadow of a Corpse (in original Italian: Inginocchiati straniero... I
cadaveri non fanno ombra!) is a 1970 spaghetti western
Storyline Dead Men Don't Make Shadows 1970
American actor Jack Betts appeared in a couple of soap
operas and even hadhunt a part in the very first Spider-man movie with Tobey
Maguire. But he really came into his own and had a fine career doing spaghetti
westerns under the name Hunt Powers.
As was usual with spaghetti westerns, DEAD MEN DON’T MAKE
SHADOWS appeared in America under more than one title. I went with the shorter
one as Stranger That Kneels Beside the Shadow of a Corpse seemed a bit long. I
believe it was the literal translation of the Italian title.
Powers is Lazar Peacock, a bounty killer. He comes off as
something of a vicious personality at times, seeming to like to torture his
hunts. Spaghetti vet Gordon Mitchell has a cameo as Roger Murdock, a man with
twelve thousand on his head. Lazar drives him away from several water holes in
the desert with gunshots before allowing him to drink his fill, then killing
him. We also see he holds a crippled old man at an isolated cemetery with no
way to get out. No horse, a game leg, and no way to carry water from where he
stays, he protests his innocence to Lazar every time he comes. Lazar promises
to help him–soon!
The other lead is a mystery man(Franco Borelli, billed as
Chet Davis), a young fellow that is following Lazar, always one step behind we
see as at each town, wanted posters are missing for Murdock until he arrives at
one ahead of the bounty killer and settles down to await his arrival. The
English language version I saw gives no name, he being referred to as the
Stranger a couple of times(the IMDb post of the film him as the Stranger. The
Spaghetti Western Database however has him as Blonde(his hair color) When the
bounty man brings in Murdock, the Stranger follows him.
The mining town of Lamazos is where they end up. A man named
Barrett(Ettore Manni) owns the town and everything in it. he wears a white suit
and the actor uses a small hand fan as a prop in most scenes. He has a mine
forman named Medina(Benito Pacifico, billed as Dennis Colt) that wears a
scarlet suit with black trim, likes using a whip, and has a thing for a beauty
named Maya(Simonetta Vitelli, billed as Simone Blondell), a fortune teller who
uses her wiles to get Medina to ease up on the peasants.
The relationship of all these personalities evolves over the
picture at a leisurely pace, which doesn’t hurt the film at all.
All becomes clear at that isolated cemetery as Lazar and the
Stranger have their final showdown.
the director was Demofilo Fidani billing himself as Miles
Deems, though he use his real name as Executive Producer. A prolific director,
he seems to have had a reputation as a, how shall I put it, melodramatic man.
