And after watching the Italian auteur’s barnstorming 1968 masterpiece The Mercenary, you’ll be hard pressed to disagree. Django icon Franco Nero stars as The Polak; a laid-back gun-for-hire who agrees to help a wannabe revolutionary (Tony Musante, The Bird With The Crystal Plumage) put his plans into practice. Hot on their trail, however, is the wickedly camp Curly (Jack Palance, twenty-three years before his identically named, Oscar-winning turn in City Slickers) who’s determined to snag a share of their ever increasing booty. Blending bullet-sprayed action with waggish dialogue, and a simply stunning Ennio Morricone & Bruno Nicolai score, The Mercenary proudly stands at the top of the Zapata Western subgenre; a lip-smacking, gorgeously lensed treat finally available on UK shores thanks to those sharpshootin’ bandidos at 88 Films!
