ADDITION: Kino Blu-ray (December 2019): Kino have transferred Enzo G. Castellari's Kill Them All and Come Back Alone to Blu-ray. with separate transfers of both the Italian and, slightly shorter, English cuts of the pasta western. It is on a dual-layered disc with supportive bitrates and is advertised as being from a "Brand New 4K Restoration". Both versions have the same image quality and look stupendous. I can't recall the last Spaghetti western that looked this strong in 1080P. It has tight lines, rich colors supporting the impressive cinematography by Alejandro Ulloa and the excellent art direction by Enzo Bulgarelli and Jaime Pérez Cubero. The film's many close-ups show fabulous detail from sweat to skin pores. Overall this presentation is both consistent and stellar.

NOTE: 46 more full resolution (1920 X 1080) Blu-ray captures for Patrons are available HERE.

On their Blu-ray, Kino use a DTS-HD Master 2.0 channel tracks (16-bit) for both the Italian and English language versions. It is another advancement in the film's western effects (guns and horses) and genre-related score by Francesco De Masi (Sartana's Here... Trade Your Pistol for a Coffin, The Murder Clinic, Private Vices, Public Virtues, The Hanging Woman, The New York Ripper). Kino offer optional English subtitles for the Italian version only on their Region 'A' Blu-ray.

The Kino Blu-ray includes an audio commentary by director/writer Alex Cox (author of 10,000 Ways to Die: A Director's Take on the Spaghetti Western) and he is great (as always) discussing how Chuck Connors 'acts with his teeth' how Enzo G. Castellari's Kill Them All and Come Back Alone is not so much interested in gunfights as manly tension, the film's sub-genre labeling as an 'acrobatic western' or 'circus western', how the characters are basically defined by their costumes and the film's technical virtues - cinematography and art direction. Plus much more - he is wonderful to listen to referencing other pasta western director and films as he comments on specific scenes. There is a weak SD trailer and trailers for other genre films.

Kill Them All and Come Back Alone (what a great title!) is an above-average Spaghetti western and has Chuck Connors in a great role. I was very keen on Cox's insights into director Castellari in the commentary. Part of the appeal here is the gorgeous appearance in 1080P (both cuts) and the inclusion of Italian and English versions. Tons of value here for fans of this western genre.  It's a film I look forward to revisiting on Blu-ray for a 'Double Feature' night with something like Keoma. This certainly has our recommendation!
