Annoying Fuckers
Read more: Annoying FuckersMost people are annoying.

The Great Silence (1968)
Read more: The Great Silence (1968)Having recently seen the gorgeous remastered Film Movement version of this bleak and bloody masterpiece, I can only say; The Great Silence is the greatest Spaghetti Western not directed by Sergio Leone.
