Summary: DEATH RIDES A HORSE
Review: As you see the spagheti westerns are geting very popular nowdays. I think that this kind of story telling is very rearly shown on the sp. spoof,like FFDM,whitch is an other great example withe two great acters: CLINT EASTWOOD & LEE VAN CLEEF.with similar story.I rememberd when i was 12 year old when my father showed me for the first time DEATH RIDES A HORSE on VHS.I felt in love with the movie,even though after is sew THE GOOD ,THE BAD AND THE UGLY,whitch is an other great SERGIO LEONE'S western.The film is classified as one of the best non-Leone SP- WEST with consistent story flow, superb sondtrack and good use of time element,mutch like Leone's sense of rythm.Vincenzoni did his best to apply Leone recipe for that film, and assigned many of Leone's crew members like:MARIO BREGA, LUIGI PISTILLI, JOSE TORES,ANTHONY DAWSON etc. LUCIANO VINCENZONI is the screenwrighter.One of the best screenwriters of the sp- genre. LUCIANO VINCENZONI was also the writer of SERGIO LEONE's two great westerns: For a few dollars more & The Good The Bad & The Ugly. DEATH RIDES A HORSE ,the director GIULIO PETRONI was supervised by VINCENZONI up on UA's directions. What i can sagest is that the copy of DEATH RIDES A HORSE on DVD is of poor print ,it should be sheame when you compere with the other LEONE'S westerns on DVD ,when you look at there quality. I can count if the studio re- releases with mutch better print and better sound, because this movie stands one of the best classics of NON - LEONE'S spaghetti westerns at all times. Please do take my effort.

Summary: better than average spaghetti western.
Review: Death rides a horse has the typical revenge plot however it has a good music score and van cleef and phillip law do a pretty good job at conjuring up mayhem!!Worth a look!

Summary: Similar to For a Few Dollars More
Review: For fans of the spaghetti western genre, Death Rides a Horse will remind them of For A Few Dollars More, one of Sergio Leone's Dollars trilogy starring Clint Eastwood. While very similar the film is still worth watching. Lee Van Cleef is awesome, as usual, with John Phillip Law giving a decent performance albeit without much emotion. Usual cast of supporters in the genre with Luigi Pistilli and Mario Brega and even a small part with Anthony Dawson. Excellent storyline with one of the best endings in the spaghetti genre. However the DVD is of very poor quality with no extras offered whatsoever. Do what I did and wait for Turner Classic Movies to air it in widescreen and tape it. Only reason I give this DVD 3 stars is because of the quality. The movie on its own would probably be closer to five.

Summary: Solid Movie, Lousy DVD
Review: I have always liked this obscure Italian western. Lee Van Cleef is outstanding and off sets to some extent, the dull monotone performance of John Phillp Law. Leone stalwarts Luigi Pistilli and Mario Brega also are in the film. The DVD quality is atrocious, the picture is horrible and is in miserable pan and scan to boot. Hopefully one day this film will be restored and given proper DVD treatment. Widescreen folks! Pan and scan just does not make it. That was the big mistake VHS made. If this had nice picture quality and was in widescreen, I would give it 4 stars easily.

Summary: A rerelease your best bet
Review: If you are a fan of this western, just be warned that the quality of the film is horrible. The print has not been restored at all, and the picture suffers from faded colours, specks and a dirty print. Still, it has Lee Van Cleef and Ennio Morricone doing the score. If the quality of the print doesn't bother you, then the 10 bucks for this DVD isnt that much.

Summary: Poor Quality
Review: Lee Van Cleef is awesome as always and carrys the flick. Downer note quality of DVD is poor and seems like a 6th generation VHS copy. Great Movie and Plot but the quality ruins it. 2.5 stars

Summary: Great Movie Lousy quality
Review: Lee van Cleef once again masters the spaghetti western. This DVD quality is bad. Which distracted from the movie. Does anyone have a good copy?

Summary: Great SP western, Bad DVD!
Review: Lee Van is a cool character in this Western. I recommend you watch it on the western channel and avoid this horrible DVD. Walk right buy it because some company will eventually release a mastered addition of it, like many spaghetti westerns in Japan's DVDs.
