1.Quick & The Dead starring: Sharon Stone, Gene Hackman, Russell Crowe, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobin Bell
directed by: Sam Raimi
January 30, 1996

VHS : Quick & The Dead
Action movies are only as good as their villains. Heroics require really nasty bad guys.

Gene Hackman skillfully portrays an antagonist so mean you know he'd kill his own son. Sharon Stone, for the most part, credibly plays the protagonist, but her motivation for revenge seems filched from Harmonica in Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West.

The remaining cast of bad guys are cartoonish and the plot stretches credulity beyond the limits, but fine acting and a unique premise work to make this an engaging film.

It also fun to watch Leonardo Di Caprio and Russell Crowe in secondary roles before they could demand eight figure salaries per movie.

VHS : The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
This is a fantastic film, a brilliant example of a western or a war film, as well as being a very entertaining movie. The action is brutal and the directing makes this an amazing spectacle.

This is one of the best films I've ever seen.

directed by: David O. Selznick, Josef von Sternberg, King Vidor, Otto Brower, Sidney Franklin

VHS : Duel in the Sun
This has always been one of my favorites westerns, although I never went to the trouble of getting a DVD version, until it came up on my Amazon recommendation list. I ordered it right away, and received the usual good Amazon service, and quick, free shipping, and have not been disappointed. Gregory Peck is one of best actors, and makes the movie, playing the bad guy this time, instead of his usual hero role. I can personally recommend this movie, going against a number of the negative reviews that are posted here.

4.The Villain starring: Kirk Douglas, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ann-Margret, Paul Lynde, Foster Brooks
directed by: Hal Needham
September 29, 1997

VHS : The Villain
This is a western/comedy as good as Blazing Saddles or Maverick. And oddly enough, it has Arnold in it?! But don't expect his favorite catch phrase "I'll be back". This is much older than Terminator.

5.From Dusk Till Dawn starring: Harvey Keitel, George Clooney, Juliette Lewis, Quentin Tarantino, Ernest Liu
directed by: Robert Rodriguez

VHS : From Dusk Till Dawn
It is a classic. the 2 disc set has everything you need and more. if you are a Quentin Tarantino fan, Harvey Keitel, or George Clooney, it is a "must have". as an added bonus if you are a Salma Hayek fan, she is the hottest Vamp on the planet!! if you like Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs fan, get this one. it is great.

6.A Fistful of Dollars starring: Clint Eastwood, Gian Maria Volontè, Marianne Koch, Wolfgang Lukschy, Sieghardt Rupp
directed by: Monte Hellman, Sergio Leone

This is the first Spaghetti western and a superb film. Both Clint Eastwood and Sergio Leone are on top form and the storyline, dialogue and action are tremendous.

A classic.

This is Clint Eastwood at his imcomparable best. To me, it even outranks "Unforgiven."

VHS : The Wild Bunch - 30th Anniversary Edition
I put this in my top 25 greatest westerns. Lots of good actors. Lots of shoot em up. Vengeance is the driving force of the story. Good sub plots. Will be or is a western classic. I bought the box set of Sam Peckinpah's western. Was worth the price for 4 movies and free delivery.

10.Rancho Deluxe starring: Jeff Bridges, Sam Waterston, Elizabeth Ashley, Clifton James, Slim Pickens
