Last night’s viewing

commenced with…

Terence Hill playing Django in the Spaghetti Western “Django, Prepare a Coffin”, with some very familiar faces playing their usual roles. Horst Frank and George Eastman hardly ever play the good guys. Though Luciano Rossi didn’t play the usual crazed maniac, Jose Torres was his standard guise.

And concluded with… Leonard Mann as Detective Belli in “Naples Shoots” aka “Weapons of Death”. Yet another poliziottesco with a tough cop cop facing off to Henry Silva. Now Franco Nero who of course was the original Django, was also the first Inspector Belli in the film of the same name and “High Crime”.

Are they cheating with the poster as Maurizio Merli played Inspector Betti in a trilogy and the actor playing a minor policeman in the film is slapped front and centre on the poster looking an awful lot like Merli,
