We have seen Sergio Leone’s masterful western trilogy – The Man with No Name Trilogy – release on Blu-ray a few times and in separate forms, but now we have a new upcoming release largely centered around the new remastered edition of The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. While the features may largely be the same, a new transfer for one of the best westerns of all time is a good enough reason to get excited, as films like Robocop and The Terminator, among others, have certainly been done proper justice with their new remasters, as of late. Continue on to learn more about this upcoming release.
The Sergio Leone “Spaghetti Westerns” did not simply add a new chapter to the genre…they reinvented it. From his shockingly violent and stylized breakthrough, A Fistful Of Dollars, to the film Quentin Tarantino calls “the best-directed movie of all time,” The Good, The Bad And The Ugly, Leone’s vision elevated Westerns to an entirely new art form. This definitive Leone collection of the most ambitious and influential Westerns ever made includes more than five hours of special features that uncover buried gold in these gritty classics – plus a NEWLY REMASTERED version of The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.
