HammyUK was in a Spaghetti Western?
Good/Bad/Ugly is my favourite ever film! Once Upon A Time In The West ain't bad either.
Though, whilst we are on the subject, I did see a Spag Western when I was younger but can't remember the name of it - remember a good scene with people throwing gold bags about in an almost gymnastic/comedy way near the end (was very young at the time), so if any Western affectionados can identify it on that poor description then let me know!
One of my favourite films full stop...

TGTBATU here too. The pacing of it's just perfect. I remember watching the final shootout for the first time and barely being able to breathe, which considering how long it goes on for, is saying something 😆
Loads of good ones tbh.
The Outlaw Josey Wales - I'm not sure it's a Spaghetti Western though, from the same era.
filmed in the US according to imdb. always loved spaghetti westerns, used to watch them in spain when on holiday tiny cinema behind Puerto Banus (long before it was discovered by the russian mafia). Looking at the recent google maps it would be buried under the "Plaza Antonio Banderas" 😯
It has to be 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly' for me. Compared to the other two fistful of dollars films it is like the director is saying "Ok, so you liked the first two, now let me show what I can really do". Epic backdrops, a pretty good storyline and Tuco is one of my favourite film characters of all time.
Honourable mention also goes to Hang 'Em High.
[i]Good/Bad/Ugly is my favourite ever film! [/i]
Me too! 🙂
Rode past some of the Spaghetti western locations...
Once upon a time in the west and all of the clint ones.
Anyone interested in seing Once upon a time, at cinemy in Lincoln?
Trying to find enough people to make it worth getting a private screening.
La trilogia de Trinidad.
(Echoing cha****ng & mrsfry)
Not all spaghetti, but my favourite films are:
TGTBATU
Once upon a time in the West
High plains drifter
Pat Garrett & Billy the kid
The Wild Bunch
Lonesome Dove (miniseries)
Westerns are my favourite genre 🙂
High Plains Drifter.
All of Eastwood's spaghetti westerns, and I'm rather amazed, and quietly chuffed that there's someone else (waves to mrsfry) who even knows about the Trinity films!
I've got the DVDs, but sadly they're pretty shonky quality,
Still very funny though, the fight between the monks and the bandit makes me giggle just thinking about it. 😆
They call me Trinity
And Trinity is still my name
YUP , The outlaw Joses wales , not a spaghetti but bloody faultless from start to finish .
Its on sky this thur 2.35am if any youngster wanted to be educated in what a classic movie is .
Saw The Wild Bunch for the first time last year.
It had clearly influenced so many other films I've already seen, almost felt like deja vu.
Great film. Deeper than most westerns despite the ultraviolence.
TGTBATU my fave film of all time too.
Good Bad Ugly and High Plains Drifter for me. Not very original but I think there's a reason they keep coming up.
Oh and City Slickers naturally... 😉
High Plains Drifter isn't a Spaghetti Western.
TGTBATU, natch, but the final gunfight scene in For a Few Dollars More is just the coolest scene ever.
The sweaty bloke is just about to shoot Lee Van Cleef then the watch appears, chiming.
Fist Full of Travellers' Cheques.
Love westerns but not the Spag ones much.
The Searchers is the best Western ever by the way.
I don't really know what a spaghetti western is, but there are only three types of Western worth considering :
1) ones with Clint Eastwood
2) young guns
3) the one with willie nelson and the crack job guy
The music in that 'They Call Me Trinity' trailer sounds great
I love the Dollars trilogy but Once upon a time is an incredible film.
Fist Full of Travellers' Cheques
😆
"This train WILL stop at Saint Domingo, old woman".
Desperado
Silverado
Buckeroo
High plains drifter- is Clint really an embodiment of the recently deceased sheriff? And no one's suggested Two Mules For Sister Sara, which is functional and upbeat if nothing else.
High Noon, though not Spaghetti, is worth a look as it plays in real time, kinda like '24' but with Cowboys and cowardly townsfolk.
Most of the above mentioned Spags, no mention of the origanal Django's??,i have watched and enjoyed many times but tgtbatu is a masterpiece, followed by the others in dollar series.A good horse opera for me has to have at least 1 of the following
Ennio soundtrack
That distinctive gun sound
Well shot landscapes
A pshycopath baddy
A hunchback vesta
Cigars
Holes in boots soles
Badly dubbed manic laughter
The Granny's from Josey Wales
Clint
For me it's A few dollars more or The left hand of the Devil
Love most of them.
The Trinity films not seen them for a long time.
I better watch on now.
Last Man Standing. Pure Western with Bruce...
Once Upon a Time in the West
TGTBATU
Once upon a time in the west...but I remember the the Trinity films from the ""Alex Cox presents"" thing on C4. Does anyone remember The Big Silence....awesome.
I used to watch all the Trinity movies (all the Bud Spencer /Terence Hill infact) as a kid and loved them.
Which leads me to My Name is Nobody yet again Moricone made a fantastic theme tune.
You know it...
Such a great tune, i think its impossible not to be in a good mood when listening to that.
I left YouTube playing after and this has just come on...
Giving me Goosebumps!
