The other Sergio that was most famous for westerns. He had a really nice run of westerns in the '60s. If you are into spaghetti westerns and have never checked out his work, it is definitely worth it. He was a big influence on Tarantino.

If you have seen his work what is your favorite? Django is probably the most famous, but I think The Great Silence is a better film.

I think The Great Silence and Django are easily his two best. However, I haven't seen them all.

I probably prefer The Great Silence over Django, but I haven't seen Django in years. I need to get around to watching my Arrow BD.

And even though it's not my favorite of his movies, I love this scene in The Mercenary; both because of how blatantly Corbucci's aping Leone, and because of the music. One of my absolute favorite Morricone cues.

Woah, never heard of his films but will certainly be doing a mini-festival soon. Thanks for the intro.

The only film of his that I’ve seen is Django and I really liked it.

I’ve heard good things about The Great Silence but I’ve always held off mostly because I like my Spaghetti Westerns to be sweaty and dusty, not bundled up and snowy. I’ll have to give it a try someday though.

I’ve seen six of his but my top two are the same as everyone else’s. Django is probably the tops, but the Great Silence is really outstanding.

Voted for Companeros. My most favorite team-up Buddy film of all time.

I’ve seen 3 Corbucci westerns. One of which I can remember neither the title nor the plot. All I can remember is really disliking it. The second, Django which is a terrific film. And finally, The Great Silence, which is a flat out masterpiece that in my opinion is only eclipsed as a spaghetti western by 2 films directed by the other Sergio.

I've seen nine of the films listed in the poll and my favorite remains the first one I saw, THE MERCENARY, which I saw in 1970 on a double bill with HALLS OF ANGER (a pre-blaxploitation drama about school busing) and then again in 1973 on a double bill with THE CHINESE CONNECTION, the only Bruce Lee movie I saw while Lee was still alive. I've since seen THE MERCENARY several more times and enjoy it each time. It was one of a number of films at the time dealing with the Mexican Revolution (e.g. VILLA RIDES, THE WILD BUNCH, 100 RIFLES, etc.). I saw the sequel, COMPANEROS, in a theater (on a double bill with TROUBLE MAN), but I was less enamored of the film's more comical approach, although I liked Tomas Milian in the Tony Musante role.

Tough call. The Great Silence is a fantastic movie -- directly influenced The Hateful Eight. It does stand apart from other Italian oaters from the time in that it is set in the bitter cold, not the scorching sun and the violence is brutal but not stylized. Definitely worth a watch.

Not his best, but honorable mention to Sonny and Jed. Stars Tomas Milian (one of my favorites from the genre), Susan George and Telly Savalas. Also worth checking out for the Corbucci completists out there.

Nick Danger

The only one I've seen is Django, and that was great.
