El Diablo [DVD]

This was one of my favorite western movies when I was a kid and it stands the test of time. It is cowritten and produced by John Carpenter. Good DVD transfer. Louis Gossett Jr and Anthony Edwards lead a well picked cast of characters as they attempt to rescue one of Edwards' students from a group of bandits. A timeless classic.

This movie should not be viewed with the idea of a serious western. I did, but it didn't take but about 5 minutes to see this was a comedy with a western flavor. Others have given the general story of the movie so I will comment on the actors. I thought they all preformed well and made it a fun watch for the evening without taxing my brain. This was from a VHS tape and was very good color wise and clear viewing. I would recomend this for a fun evening. A little gory and some swearing so parents check it out before letting young children watch.

One of my favorite westerns. Humorous with classic western feel. So glad to see it added to prime. The interaction between Louis Gossett Junior and Anthony Edwards is priceless! Both did a phenomenal job acting in this flick. Would absolutely recommend!

I gave this movie as a gift. I arrived quickly, and he is enjoying his new movie.

Actually not a bad movie.

This has become one of our personal family classics. I saw it when it was first released on HBO (20 years ago now) and bought the VHS tape as soon as it was available. It was one of the films my son grew up with and still loves, one of those we go back to when we're wanting a feel-good movie. It is alternately silly, tender, ludicrous and suspenseful, but it is always enjoyable. It was extremely well done, from script to editing and everything in between. If you can enjoy saying, "spoiled by spare spurs" five times fast, you'll love this movie!

I almost guarantee if you take the time to watch this quirky western comedy you will be entertained. The one thing that bothers me is the acting or lack there of by the main female star. Fortunately she is in it very little.

Very enjoyable movie. Lou is one of the best at his craft. The is a great for the family if you and yours like westerns. Great lines in the movie. "So where do you want to get shot, the stomach or the head?" "Oh, how about in France in the Spring". Try it, you will like it...

Nothing to write home about

All good thank you

I have been looking for this, all over the world, and finally I found it. It is a great movie that everybody should see.

John Carpenter wrote and produced this early 90’s Western.

Great movie. Classics like this are hard to find and at such a great price.
