Companeros (1970) Anchor Bay USA Region 0 DVD | Morricone provides a lively score in this fun, action western with a strong plot, solid cast and
production values. Highly recommended for genre fans and newcomers alike. |
Danger: Diabolik (1968) USA Paramount Region 1 DVD | Bava's masterly direction brings a true comic-book air to this well directed film, boosted by a perfect Morricone score. Recommended. |
Death Rides a Horse (1968) MGM UK Region 2 DVD | A very strong score boosts this strong directed film with a well written but unoriginal plot. Recommended to SW fans and good for newcomers. |
Duello nel Texas (1963)
Ripley Home Video Italian Region 0 DVD | A well written and produced film from before the SW boom, featuring the first genre score from Morricone. Recommended. |
Fistful of Dollars (1964) Paramount German Region 2 DVD | A powerful score turns Leone's well directed Western into an iconic film. Highly recommended. |
For a Few Dollars More (1965) Paramount German Region 2 DVD | Leone and Eastwood return, as does Morricone with an even better score that fits the film perfectly. Highly recommended. |
Grand Slam (1967) US Blue Underground Region 0 DVD | A sparse, average score does little to spruce up this dull heist movie. Not recommended. |
The Great Silence (1969) Eureka UK Region 0 DVD | This impressive Spaghetti Western is boosted by a strong orchestral score from Morricone and Nicholai. Recommended to fans of the darker Spaghetti Westerns. |
Hellbenders (1967) Anchor Bay USA Region 1 DVD | A neat Morricone score boosts this solid Spaghetti Western from Sergio Corbucci. Of interest to genre fans. |
The Hills Run Red (1966) Optimum UK Region 2 DVD | Another early score in a Spaghetti Western, this is an enjoyable if rather unoriginal production. Recommended to genre fans. |
Life is Tough, eh Providence? (1972)
Ripley Home Video Italian Region 0 DVD | Tomas Milian stars in this slapstick Spaghetti Western that soon becomes rather tired despite a good score and production. Not recommended. |
Navajo Joe (1966) Optimum Releasing Region 2 DVD | A powerful blend of Native Indian and Western themes makes Morricone's score for this Sergio Corbucci film one of his best. For Corbucci and Spaghetti Western fans. |
Pistole non Discutono (1964)
Ripley Home Video Italian Region 0 DVD | Shot just before Leone's film of the same year, this interesting genre entry makes a great contrast to the later film. Recommended. |
Revolver (1973) US Blue Underground Region 0 DVD | One
of the most popular Italian Crime films, it boasts good direction,
acting and with a strong Morricone soundtrack. Highly recommended to all. |
Run, Man, Run (1968) Blue Underground USA Region 0 DVD | A very fitting soundtrack boosts this well made but over-ambitiously scripted film. Partially recommended to political Western fans. |
Seven Guns for the MacGregors (1966)
Ripley Home Video Italian Region 0 DVD | This comic genre entry is generally lighthearted and enjoyable but flawed. Morricone provides a good Scottish soundtrack. Partly recommended. |
Seven Women for the MacGregors (1967) Ripley Home Video Italian Region 0 DVD | The
second time round for the Scottish clan is better written and equally
well scored but still suffers many of the same problems. Partly recommended. |
The Untouchables (1987) Collectors Edition - Paramount USA Region 1 DVD | Morricone's varied scores boost a very strong film with an all star cast, great production design and good directing. Recommended to all. |
