Mannaja (A Man Called Blade)

Spaghetti Western Night Presents:

Mannaja
This is the first spaghetti western that I've enjoyed
in a long time. Good story, good pacing, and
interesting scenes.
One scene that comes to mind is the scene
where this group of females are dancing and playing music
while a few miles away another group are being
savagely murdered, instead of hearing the
shootings and screaming, we (the audience) only hear the music
in that one scene.
The movie is about 90 minutes, perfect time.
I hate when these westerns
drag on forever, and this wasn't the case.
Lots of axe throwing and axe kicking.

A must buy for the spaghetti western collection.
