Synopsis
Double bill of spaghetti western goodness. In KEOMA Franco Nero (DJANGO) stars as the title character in this unjustly forgotten spaghetti western from Italian auteur Enzo G. Castellari. Keoma, a half white, half Indian gunfighter, returns to his hometown only to find it overrun by a plague affecting much of the town. Unfortunately, the man running the town, Caldwell, will not let anyone out or any medical supplies in. After saving a beautiful woman (Karlatos) thought to be afflicted, Keoma sets about eradicating Caldwell and his men from his town. Stylish and brutal, director Castellari combines the conventions of the spaghetti western with the slow motion shootouts of Peckinpah, resulting in a wholly unique and entertaining movie.

Franco Nero (DJANGO) stars in this spaghetti western as Burt Sullivan, a Texas sheriff haunted by the memory of Cisco, the man who killed his father when he was a child. Hearing that Cisco is living in Mexico, Burt rounds up his little brother to accompany him through Mexico as he searches for Cisco in order to exact his revenge. However, Cisco has turned himself into the despot of a small rural town, controlling its citizens with fear and the small army he has accumulated over the years. Violent, operatic, and wickedly funny, TEXAS, ADDIO turns the familiar revenge plot of so many westerns into something completely alien, a grandly scaled riff on the genre that is hugely entertaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars one the best spaghetti westerns, 14 May 2008
Keoma is an excellent addition to the spaghetti western genre. It is stylishly directed with some brilliant slow motion sequences. The only thing wrong with the film is the awful music score from the usually reliable De Angelis brothers which is just absolutely painful to listen to (their score for Sergio Martinos A Man Called Blade is just as bad).
The dvd also includes a bonus disc containing Fredinaldo Baldis Texas Addios starring Franco Nero which is quite boring and nothing to write home about.
Keoma is presented in anamorphic widescreen (2:35.1) but the picture quality is pretty bad, however the dvd makes up for this with some nice extras including an interview with director Enzo G Catellari, an introduction from cult director Alex Cox,the films trailer and bonus trailers for A bullet for the General,Django,DjangoKill!.Texas Addios is widescreen anamorphic 2:35.1 and the only extra is the trailer
