4.0 out of 5 stars
The heyday of the Euro-western,
By
This review is from: Spaghetti Westerns 20 Movie Pack (DVD)
SPAGHETTI WESTERNS 20 Movie Pack includes works made primarily in Italy and other European locations. (Note that "Apache Blood" is an American film.) Half of these have not been previously issued by MCE and are marked (*) on the list below.
MILL CREEK box sets offer good-to-average-quality audio and video transfers of public domain material at a most reasonable price. An excellent companion piece would be their MEAN GUNS 20 Movie Pack, which offers 18 films not already in this DVD pack. . Parenthetical numbers preceding titles are 1 to 10 viewer poll ratings found at a film resource website. (3.4) Apache Blood (1975) - Ray Danton (4.6) (*) Between God, the Devil and a Winchester (Italy/Spain-1968) - Gilbert Roland/Richard Harrison (5.7) (*) Beyond the Law (Italy/W Ger./Monaco-1968) - Lee Van Cleef/Antonio Sabato/Gordon Mitchell/Lionel Stander/Bud Spencer (5.5) China 9, Liberty 37 (Italy/Spain-1978) - Warren Oates/Sam Peckinpah (6.9) Death Rides A Horse (Italy-1968) - Lee Van Cleef/John Phillip Law (6.1) (*) The Fighting Fists of Shanghai Joe (Italy-1972) - Klaus Kinski/Chen Lee (5.0) (*) Find a Place to Die (Italy-1968) - Jeffrey Hunter (6.1) (*) Fistful of Lead (Italy-1970) - George Hilton/Charles Southwood/Erica Blanc (4.0) God's Gun (Italy/Israel-1976) - Lee Van Cleef/Jack Palance/Richard Boone (5.1) Grand Duel (Italy/France/W. Ger./Monaco-1972) - Lee Van Cleef (5.3) Gunfight At Red Sands (Spain/Italy-1963) - Richard Harrison (5.1) It Can Be Done Amigo (Spain/Italy/France-1972) - Bud Spencer/Jack Palance (6.2) (*) Johnny Yuma (Italy-1966) - Mark Damon/Lawrence Dobkin (5.3) (*) Man from Nowhere ("Arizona Colt") (Italy/France-1966) - Guiliano Gemma (6.0) (*) Minnesota Clay (France/Spain/Italy-1965) - Cameron Mitchell (6.1) (*) Sundance and the Kid (Italy/Spain-1969) - Giuliano Gemma/Nino Benvenuti (4.7) This Man Can't Die (Italy/Spain-1972) - Guy Madison/Rik Battaglia (4.0) Trinity And Sartana (Italy-1972) - Robert Widmark (4.2) (*) Twice a Judas (Italy/Spain-1969) - Klaus Kinski/Antonio Sabato (3.7) White Comanche (Spain-1968) - Joseph Cotten/William Shatner

For A Few Dollars Less: The Best Value Yet on Spaghetti Westerns,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Spaghetti Westerns 20 Movie Pack (DVD)
As noted in a previous review, this SPAGHETTI WESTERNS 20 MOVIE PACK contains several films (10) not found in other compilations. I had not seen any of these movies before, but purchased the set for the variety of stellar international actors who appear here (which includes Piero Lulli, Rosalba Neri, Gilbert Roland, Chen Lee, Erika Blanc, and Klaus Kinski, in addition to many great American western actors...for $10 new, postage included, this was a "no-brainer"!). I've not yet watched all twenty movies, but about 3/4 of them, and I can attest already that I've got my money's worth and more! I have especially enjoyed THE FIGHTING FISTS OF SHANGHAI JOE (SEE this, if you haven't yet!), MINNESTOA CLAY, FISTFUL OF LEAD, JOHNNY YUMA, SUNDANCE AND THE KID, DEATH RIDES A HORSE, and even WHITE APACHE (a must-see for fans of Wm. Shatner!).
Having other Mill Creek packs of various film genres in my possession, I didn't have high expectations for picture/sound clarity...however, all but a few of these are quite good in that regard. I'm pleased overall with the transfer quality: 4 or 5 of the films are in gorgeous WidescreeN, and another PLUS is that the seemingly ubiquitous "Mill Creek" watermark found on other releases is nowhere to be seen here!!! Mill Creek has also upgraded their packaging, with paper sleeves holding the 'picture disks' (4 films on each single-sided dvd) which feature a graphic of Lee Van Cleef next to CLEARLY MARKED TITLES; these are snugly packed inside a sturdy molded plastic case. Definitely worth more than the $10 pittance I shelled out!

Good value for the money,
By
This review is from: Spaghetti Westerns 20 Movie Pack (DVD)
When I see a box set of 20 movies for this price I am always skeptical but optimistic. Hopefully some of the titles will at least be watchable, from a picture quality standpoint. I was amazed to find that half the movies in this collection are very good widescreen transfers. Some of these are Beyond the Law, Find a Place to Die, Grand Duel, Johnny Yuma, and Minnesota Clay. The only truly unwatchable transfer is Gunfight at Red Sands. A few of these films are not actually Spaghetti Westerns but at the price of this set I shouldn't be complaining at all.
I was especially impressed with the quality of Johnny Yuma. Well worth the money.
