The Ugly Ones

A low-key spaghetti western that takes place almost exclusively on a dusty back yard (the ingenious camera work sells it well from ever new angles) where the atmosphere gradually thickens. And it becomes so thick that you could cut it with a knife. A good genre piece with nothing extra. And nothing is needed; maybe just somebody else instead of Richard Wyler, because he is unconvincing as a pragmatic gunslinger. (2013-01-27)
