Mannaja (1977)

MANNAJA (1977) - I bought this one with a four movie package of Speghetti Westerns.  This is definately the last of the Italian Westerns made in 1977 and starring some blow dry blond actor named Maurizio Merli. The film has alot of the elements of an Italian western, but the genre seems to have run out of steam here in this film. Its good visually and they have two decent characters and one unique song. The lead character kinda ruins it for me, but perhaps some of you might like it.  He uses an axe as a weapon and dresses like a mountain man. It is a good bad movie. The film is lacking something. I had trouble getting into it.
