Bloody Sam present us with a real calssic: BMTHOAG!
In this movie everything is dirty, rotten, and sleazy!
I alson think that Peckinpah was trying to show us that amorality is something that will always be present in humanity during the existence of the human kind.I

This sensational Peckinpah epic is seasoned with the fat and gristle that was shaved off of the director's more respectable works. With gratuitious nudity, vioence, and some frightful day for night photography, Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is a half skip away from joining the exploitation genre. The protagonist is a boozing, debaucherous wreck on a selfish quest for money. However, after a devastating midpoint crisis, the film transforms him into a force of nature, hollowed out by grief, driving his Cadillac on a bloodthirsty odyssey of redemption. It's lazily photographed and crude, but it's an icon of Sam Peckinpah's maddened vision, the only one left alone by the studios.

One of my favorite Sam Peckinpah films of all time. It is a surreal action film that doesn't stop from beginning to end. It is real hard to classify this movie, because it has so many elements working together to create this collage of violence & morbidness. Warren Oates does an excellent job playing the drunken protagonist, shooting bad guys, digging up graves, talking to decapitated heads, all in a slammin' white suit I might add. The film isn't necessarily realistic but it is just plain enjoyable to watch. Great concept great execution!

surreal and crazy tour de force. a kinda westernish masterpiece about the head-hunt, literally, with the protagonist so mad that talks to a head of a dead man, gangsters and cheaters, american and mexican, killing each other in gunfights and countdowns, and finally the absurd of all of this. peckinpah began to recycle himself, but in a good manner. he sticks to the things he knows most.

Peckinpah made a lot of good films but i think this is my favorite.It's the story of a down on his luck whorehouse piano player (Warren Oates at his best) who gets caught up in the chase to take and deliver the head of Alfredo Garcia to a Mexican gangster for a $10,000 reward.Well problem is there's quite a few other seedy characters that want this money too.Among these are a pair of professional hitmen who have not quite made it out of the closet yet (Gig Young and Robert Webber).I don't want to give away too much plot here but it's a road trip movie with plenty of violence a few laughs and lots of grit.

While I found Nimrod Antal's most recent effort, Vacancy, to be quite the letdown, I decided, based solely on his artistic eye, to seek out his first film, the wonderfully-titled Kontroll. This is one hell of an interesting and wonderfully gorgeous film. The dialogue is gloriously witty and the performances very natural. I don't think I gathered all there was to gather by the film's end, but I had a great time with it. ***1/2 (out of ****) A-

Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (1974)

This is an extremely violent over-the-top movie but at least it's something new from what I've seen. You know if it's directed by Sam Peckinpah it's going to be violent. This movie gets off to a slow start, and although it's always very strange, it ends with a bang.
