 Tex Willer is the most popular among Italian comics, and spaghetti westerns have long been among Italy's most famous film exports.

 It is among the first of those comic book film adaptations that today are so (perhaps too) popular.

Tex and the Lord of the Deep is a 1985 spaghetti western film adapting the popular Italian comic hero Tex Willer. Directed by Duccio Tessari and starring Giuliano Gemma, the movie faced production delays and mixed critical reception.

 "One of only three westerns ever produced in the world that is banned for those under 18 for its dramatic, fierce violence."

 Lucio Fulci is a genius... a sadistic western and a hallucinatory and psychedelic road movie.

Lucio Fulci's I Quattro dell'Apocalisse is a brutal and hallucinatory spaghetti western focusing on four doomed characters traversing a lawless desert.

 "It's sad to say, but 'The Exorcist' is unjustly defined as a cult."

 "Fear is absent. And I mean ABSENT."

This review argues that The Exorcist is an undeserving cult horror film that fails to engage or frighten viewers. The plot is criticized for being flat and nonsensical, with unconvincing characters and no real chills. Despite its reputation, it lacks true horror except for a few well-done scenes and a memorable soundtrack by Mike Oldfield. Read this honest review to rediscover The Exorcist beyond its cult status and explore a fresh perspective on this horror classic.

 Ronin is an instrumental project with strong cinematic influences (the soundtracks of the master Morricone are one of the main sources of inspiration).

 A perfect work, one of the few cases where one can be surprised by such talent.

Ronin's second album, Lemming, showcases Bruno Dorella's talent in combining cinematic, folk, and instrumental music. Inspired by Morricone's soundtracks, the album offers rich atmospheres and innovative sound techniques. Standout tracks include 'L'etiope,' 'You need it, then it comes,' and the unique collaboration with Amy Denio. The album is highly recommended for both fans and newcomers alike. Listen to Ronin’s Lemming now and experience a unique blend of cinematic folk and instrumental mastery.

 Is it still possible in 2008, in this Italy, to take everyday reality, turn it into poetry, and put it all into a pop/folk song?

 This album is here to say yes.

Baustelle's album Amen masterfully blends everyday Italian realities with poetic songwriting. It challenges the listener through themes of neoliberalism, social hardship, and cultural memory. The album's uplifting melodies and catchy choruses deliver an artful pop experience. Francesco Bianconi, alongside collaborators Rachele Bastreghi and Claudio Brasini, crafts a mature, socially aware work. Amen stands out as both a reflection of its times and a singable pop record. Listen to Baustelle's Amen and experience poetic pop that captures the spirit of modern Italy.

 This Tex and the Lord of the Abyss still leaves us with a question, indeed two: 'why?' and above all 'why in this way?'

 Our star doesn’t crash through the screen even by slamming into it, flailing in a chronic apathy that makes him move like a puppet in action scenes.

 Brass’s idea was to make a film of ideograms, where the detail represented the whole.

 Sometimes, even when rewatching a minor film like this one in the director’s career, it seems that Brass never really took himself seriously as an author nor fully believed in his sometimes considerable potential.

Tinto Brass’s 1965 spaghetti western Yankee is a passionate yet uneven film. Though hampered by production issues and formulaic plot, it showcases Brass’s unique visual ideas and competent craftsmanship. The film includes memorable lighting and symbolic scenes, with decent performances from Philippe Leroy and Adolfo Celi. It remains a minor but interesting part of Brass’s filmography and the western genre. Explore Tinto Brass’s unique take on the spaghetti western—watch Yankee and dive into its captivating visuals and intriguing moments today!

 "This western, except for the repetitive but always effective presence of Lee Van Cleef, is a work shot with the left hand whose narrative inconsistency is not at all blessed by dignified craftsmanship."

 "The film has quickly fallen into oblivion and should have stayed there if not for the revival of the title music."

The Grand Duel, directed by Giancarlo Santi in 1973, is a largely forgotten spaghetti western notable primarily for Lee Van Cleef's presence and a beautiful musical score by Luis Enriquez Bacalov. Despite its complex plot, the film suffers from poor narrative engagement, weak craftsmanship, and uninspired performances. Though briefly revived by its soundtrack and a Venice Film Festival screening, the film remains a minor and largely insignificant entry in the genre. Fans of the spaghetti western may find more rewarding works elsewhere. Discover the story behind this overlooked spaghetti western classic—watch The Grand Duel and explore its iconic score now.
