Videotape Swapshop Review: Django Kill… If You Live, Shoot! (1967)

From http://www.videotapeswapshop.co.uk/18672/django-kill-if-you-live-shoot-1967-director-giulio-questi/

Dir. Giulio Questi

Mentioned briefly in the current series of all the films I liked watching from last year, which I promise is going to get finished at some point, I've became a lot more fonder of this film than (the still positive) review that you can read here stated. The tone of the film is not comparable to a lot else in the spaghetti western sub-genre I've seen, the mixing of the politics and the bizarre not common at all. The only thing it really compares to is the director's giallo film Death Laid An Egg (1968) that, for you the reader, you can read a review of here too. The fact that Questi didn't make a lot of feature films, and that barring Django Kill..., the others are not available to see is disappointing. That he's making short films completely by his own for the last few years or less though is something to be happy about however.

A few more reviews for this batch of Videotape Swapshop reviews to go, with the next lot being part of a March season of martial arts film reviews. Until then, I hope you the reader enjoy this review of a spaghetti western that, despite my issues with Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained (2012), was probably only released in the United Kingdom on DVD because of it and many of us will be grateful to Tarantino for.
