Comments
Damiano Damiani: How To Kill A Judge
Sergio Sollima: Revolver - what a powerful film!
Pasquale Festa Campanile: Hitch-Hike
Sergio Martino: Mannaja - a later Italo-western, but IMO one of the genre's best
Enzo G. Castellari: The Big Racket
Enzo G. Castellari: The Inglorious Bastards - not Castellari's best, but an enjoyable war flick nevertheless
Don't Look Now is great, especially if you get to see it in a theater.
Don't forget the classic early 80s post-Apocolypse rip-off trilogy of his! 1990: The Bronx Warriors even had a drum part.
Its terrible but one of my favs -

BTW Anyone has a link for a really comprehensive list of american 70's movies ?
for my taste, these were the biggest omissions from my list. love both these movies!
not taxi driver ?
Does anyone know how to get a hold of this flick?....really want to check this out and apparently it never came out on DVD? At least that was the info my local mom and pop video shop imparted.....
Day Of The Locust
The Duellists
Up in Smoke
Alien
Johnny Got His Gun
possibly because i watched TD too much when younger, i'd be more likely to rewatch Blue Collar or Yazuka these days.
supposed to come out on DVD soon... in 2009 ? I read this somewhere...
