Hello, this is Dom…

From CultFilms, the Spaghetti Western classics – Django, Keoma and A Bullet for the General – will be released as a Blu-ray box set on 8th January. Here’s what they had to say:

DJANGO

Sergio Corbucci’s ground-breaking Django is one of the greatest and most influential Westerns ever. Seminal, yet banned for decades, its aesthetics of visual cruelty transcended the genre and shaped today’s film-making language. Its major influence is declared by Quentin Tarantino – among many Hollywood directors – and seen in all his films. Django, played by the legendary Franco Nero, is the mysterious lone gunslinger who, dragging a coffin behind him, arrives in a bleak, mud-drenched town where he’ll face two ruthless gangs of sadistic killers.

BONUS FEATURE: DJANGO & DJANGO

Complementing this definitive box set is a riveting, feature-length tribute from Quentin Tarantino, who sheds light on the influence Sergio Corbucci had on his career, illustrated with never-before-seen footage and film clips.

Acknowledged as the genre swansong, this late Western masterpiece is directed by Enzo G. Castellari. Screen-legend Franco Nero reprises his relentless deadly gunslinger persona, now as the eponymous Keoma who, returning to his hometown, finds that it is now ruled by a gang of sadistic killers. Aided by an old friend (a superb Woody Strode, Spartacus, The Professionals), Keoma fights the ruthless bunch to the bitter, last-man-standing, end. This gritty no-holds-barred western is presented from 2K-restored vault materials, showcasing its iconic set-pieces and its striking action-cinematography as never before.

A covert US assassin is sent to kill a General who is one of the leaders of the Mexican Revolution. He infiltrates a gang of guerrillas led by the charismatic El Chuncho (Gian Maria Volonté of the ‘Dollars’ films) with his lieutenants, the crazed priest (Klaus Kinski), and the beautiful Adelita (007’s Martine Beswick). As the rebels go on a rampage stealing weapons, they unwittingly lead the assassin to the General. A Bullet for the General established the politically-imbued ‘Zapata-Western’ genre and is finally presented in superb HD, finally doing justice to the lavish widescreen cinematography and iconic score from Ennio Morricone.
