DJANGO (1965)

Certification18 Our Rating

One of the finest Spaghetti's in the west! Banned for 25 years, it has lost nothing of its hard-edged impact. The gringos are bad and the law are worse! The hero, Django, dispenses justice from a smoking Gatling gun, and sounds like a dubbed Clint Eastwood. Absolutely superb! find out more...
EL TOPO (1971)

The highly eccentric and totally brilliant Alexandro Jodorowsky doesn't make films like anybody else. Directed, written by and starring the man himself "El Topo" is a violent, surreal, quasi-religious Western, if that makes sense (which like the film it doesn't).

A stunningly photographed epic western and Peckinpah's finest film. This is a tale of two old friends forced onto opposite sides of the law by the greed of cattle barons. A brilliant portrait of the arbitriness of the law during the twilight years of the Wild West. Essential viewing and, of course, there's Bob Dylan's soundtrack. find out more...

Peckinpah completely rewrites John Ford's Western mythology by looking at the passing of the Old West from the point of view of marginalised outlaws rather than law-abiding settlers. While never ignoring their brutality he contrasts their code of loyalty with that of the corrupt railroad magnates. In purely cinematic terms, the film is a savagely beautiful spectacle, Lucien Ballard's superb cinematography complementing Peckinpah's darkly elegiac vision. find out more...

Reformed hellraiser William Munny saddles up for one last killing, hoping the bounty will help him raise his children. But the steel has softened, and the killing doesn't come so easy any more. More real than any other Western, Clint's creation is bleak, black, desperate and brilliant. find out more...
