GOD DOESN'T PAY ON SATURDAY
dir. Tango Boccia, 1976
Italy, 95 min.
In Italian with English subtitles.
When a stagecoach robbery leaves one of their gang wounded, the rest of the bandits hide out in a nearby ghost town and begin kidnapping and torturing anyone who happens to come by.
Though later remade as the psychedelic freakout MATALO! this version, made by "the Italian Roger Corman" uses every part of the buffalo to create a stunning example in the Spaghetti Western tradition. Peppered with bright colors and religious iconography, GOD DOES NOT PAY ON SATURDAY manages to make even the light of day filled to the brim with tension. The ghost town setting creates an underlying sense of dread that gets ramped up by Angelo Francesco's score. Lead actor Larry Ward would go on to be the voice of Jabba the Hutt.
