Crazy eyed man with a shotgun… (Actually, it’s a rifle!)
I’m sure you all remember David Bowie’s unforgettably stylish performance as Jack Sikora in the Italian film Il Mio West back in 1998. Well, the coolest spaghetti western of all time finally gets an official Region 1 format DVD release through Columbia Tristar Home on September 6th, albeit with the more American friendly title, Gunslinger’s Revenge.
Directed by Giovanni Veronesi, the 86 minute film also stars Leonardo Pieraccioni, Harvey Keitel and Sandrine Holt.
