The Very Bottom of the Spaghetti Barrel
16 May 2018
This farce is 80 minutes of my life I'll never get back. Watching paint dry might have been equally as entertaining. First of all, there's no "Django" in the cast, and this movie has nothing to do with any "Django". It's just another low-budget potboiler that never managed to get to a lukewarm simmer. Giacomo Rossi Stuart, in the lead role as "Johnny" is too much a pretty boy to be credible in a Spaghetti western. Aldo Sambrell, as the arch-villain "Burton" (recognizable from "For a Few Dollars More" and "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"), the only real talent in the cast, doesn't do much other than stand around all dressed up sipping whisky and smoking cigars. There are a lot of characters, but no character development. The same can be said of the plot, such as it is. It's like the writers started out with an idea, but then forgot what it was somewhere along the way to the set. Characters we know nothing about appear from nowhere and then disappear and reappear randomly through the film. Some of the music by Elsio Mancuso has been recycled from "No Room to Die" (Una lunga fila di croci)(1969), further adding to the cheezy feeling. One star out of ten, only because IMDb won't allow ratings of ZERO stars.
