Django 2 1987  N/R, 96 min.
Genre: Foreign / Western
aka: Django Strikes Again
Director: Nello Rossati
Cast: Franco Nero, Donald Pleasence, Christopher Connelly, William Berger, Rodrigo Obregon, Alessandro Di Chio, Licia Lee Lyon, Roberto Posse, Consuelo Reina, Bill Moore
After the original "Django" in 1966, which was a landmark spaghetti Western, many "unofficial" films centered on Django were made. This film is the "real" sequel, and Franco Nero returns as the dark hero, Django, who has put violence behind him and is now a monk. But things change when his daughter is kidnapped and put to work as a slave. It's time to dig up his Gatling gun from the cemetery and go to work. A poor sequel.

Cast: Michel Serrault, Michel Galabru, Ugo Tognazzi, Stephane Audran, Benny Luke, Antonella Interlenghi, Saverio Vallone, Gianluca Favilla, Umberto Raho, Roberto Posse, Flora Carabella, Pier Francesco Aiello
This film is proof that when the first sequel is (usually) not as good as the original, the third entry has little chance of being a hit. The plot continues the saga of drag queen Alben (Michel Serrault) who discovers an inheritance is his–only if he marries and fathers a son.
