A Spaghetti Western from 1966 directed by Sergio Corbucci starring Franco Nero as Django (the D is silent), an Old West gunfighter who drags a coffin behind him wherever he goes. Pretty standard set-up: mysterious, badass stranger comes to town, shoots a lot of bad guys, and plays two groups of outlaws against each other, all in search of revenge and/or money. It had a reputation at the time for being one of the most violent movies ever, though by modern standards it's nowhere close.It inspired a number of other Spaghetti Westerns that also used the word "Django" in their titles, Italian copyright law being pretty lax on stuff like that. It had one proper sequel, Django Strikes Again, starring Nero and directed by Nello Rossati. Another, Django Lives! directed by John Sayles, is perpetually rumoured to be in production. And much later, it inspired both Sukiyaki Western Django and Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained, which featured a cameo by Franco Nero. Django even had a Crossover with Sartana in 1970's Django Defies Sartana.

comment
Bloodless Carnage: Except for a couple of isolated gore shots (including the infamous ear slicing scene), there's almost no blood in the movie. Literally dozens of people get gunned down, but there is no blood.

Fingore: Part of the Cold-Blooded Torture inflicted on Django by Hugo and his mooks, as punishment for betrayal, where his fingers (all of them) ends up being crushed by the butt of a rifle. It ends up becoming a plot point in the final duel where Django needs to figure out a way to gun down Jackson and his remaining mooks without using his fingers.

Cultural Translation
 Django / int_7d49d74a
comment
Cultural Translation: A minor case occurs in the last scene. In the Italian version, Major Jackson tells Django to pray, and then shoots at the four points of a cruciform tombstone while saying "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." In the English version, he still tells Django to pray, but the rest of his dialogue consists of him repeating things like "I can't hear you yet." This may be because the translators had a keener sense of religious differences among Americans: a Southerner (especially one affiliated with the pseudo-KKK) is not likely to use a Catholic formula like the Sign of the Cross.

Super Strength: The weight of machine guns from the 1880s was in the 60-lbs range. There was a serious reason they were fired from tripods. In the scene where he shoots the bottles at the bar, Django cradles it in his arms, without even flinching.

Contrived Coincidence: Considering how the Big Bad has a literal army at his command at the beginning of the film, it’s somewhat of an unusual (if not symbolic) coincidence that by the final scene there’s only six of them left, and Django can’t reload his six-shooter due to his injuries, meaning he has exactly one bullet left for each of his remaining foes.

Gorn: When some outlaws cut off a man's ear and make him eat it. That scene got the movie (which is otherwise no more violent than the average Spaghetti Western) banned in several countries. It's probably the most sadistic scene in the entire Western genre. It makes the violence in Sergio Leone's movies look tame.
