Ask most cinephiles about the spaghetti western and Sergio Leone’s name will most likely be invoked. As for those who’ve delved a little deeper into the genre, chances are that they’ll name-drop one or both of the other Sergios: Sergio Corbucci (Django) and Sergio Sollima (The Big Gundown).
Back in 2021, Arrow Video’s Vengeance Trails box set aimed to broaden viewers’ horizons of the spaghetti western by spotlighting works by directors like Lucio Fulci, Massimo Dallamano, and Antonio Margheriti, whose names are more often associated with other genres. Now along comes Blood Money, which unveils several lesser-known yet excellent examples of the genre. The thematic through line this time out concerns the value placed on human life. As the grizzled protagonist of Find a Place to Die puts it: “Madness and greed were in men’s hearts a long time before you came along.”

David Letterman paid tribute to one of the world’s most famous sports venues Monday — with help from some of the athletes who have competed there. Carmelo Anthony, Walt “Clyde” Frasier, John McEnroe, Rod Gilbert, Larry Johnson, Adam Graves, John Starks, Gerry Cooney, Bill Bradley and Henrik Lundqvist turned up on “The Late Show With David Letterman” to read “Top Ten Career Highlights at Madison Square Garden.” Also read: David Letterman Wants Seth Meyers to Change ‘Late Night’ Show Name (Video) This is worth watching just for the fringe on Frasier’s jacket.

Ratings (out of five): *** 1/2
The wonderful Raro Video is single-handedly reminding the world that the Italian crime director Fernando Di Leo once existed. Last year they released a wonderful four-disc box set of Di Leo films (with a Blu-Ray set added just a month ago). The company has also been releasing some of Di Leo's screenwriting efforts for other directors, notably the awesome Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man (1976).
Now comes Young, Violent, Dangerous (Liberi Armati Pericolosi) (1976), directed by Romolo Guerrieri. Though it has an equally crazy title, it's distinctly different in tone. This one is more cautionary, and comes with a little bit of conscience.

God bless Raro Video USA for exposing American cult movie fans to more Eurocrime. Their latest release is appropriately titled Young, Violent, Dangerous, and is an ode to mayhem. While the film was directed by the lesser known Romolo Guerrieri, the more famous of the principle crew is the screenwriter, Fernando Di Leo. I've tackled Di Leo before reviewing Raro titles, most recently the Blu-ray upgrade of the Di Leo Crime Collection. The other Raro title that definitely fits into this vein is Ruggero Deodato's Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man. Young, Violent, Dangerous definitely falls in the same category of all-out craziness with those two films, and Di Leo's involvement is very much in evidence, which is a good thing.1976 was a...

Samantha, the calculating wife of rich landowner Thomas Felton, plots to have her husband killed so that she and her equally ruthless brother, Pedro, can inherit the farm. After carrying out their plan and framing one of the servants for the murder, the conniving duo are more than a little put out when Felton's nephew, the rightful heir to the ranch Johnny Yuma (Matt Damon), arrives on the scene. Samantha hires an ex-lover, gunfighter Carradine (Lawrence Dobkin), to take care of Yuma, and with both him and her sadistic brother on the trail of the eponymous hero, the scene is set for an epic showdown.
Romolo Guerrieri ($10,000 For a Massacre) made Johnny Yuma during the early days of the Spaghetti Western boom. In 1966, before the impact of Sergio Corbucci's Django (also 1966) changed the game yet again, the Spaghetti Western was still largely influenced by Sergio Leone's Fistful of...
