Sabata

The man with gunsight eyes comes to kill! Who he is and where he comes from, no one knows. But the leading citizens of the Western town of Daugherty think he knows too much. And they want to silence him – forever.

Sabata, the mysterious, steely-eyed gunslinger who, after he discovers Daugherty’s elite are the masterminds behind the elaborate bank heist, imposes his bullet-laced brand of justice on the town. Bribes, bullets and even his turncoat best friend can’t stop Sabata as he guns and gallops to a final spectacular shootout that’s one of the biggest gunfights ever seen in the movies.

800 Bullets

Imagine the love child of Sergio Leone and Mel Brooks midwived by Almodóvar and you get 800 Bullets, a wickedly wacked-out western fantasy by the baddest bad boy of Spanish cinema, Álex de la Iglesia. Ten-year-old Carlos has run away from home to find his grandfather in the deserts of central Spain, the setting for all those glorious spaghetti westerns of the 1960’s. Grandpa Julian had been Eastwood’s stunt double and now stars in a run-down western tourist park populated by washed-up stock-character misfits who can’t give up the long-gone limelight. When Carlos’ uptight real-estate mogul mom buys the land and sends in the riot police to clear them out, Julian and his gang stage one last all-out overt-the-top shoot-out between good and evil.
