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.

A trio of federal drug agents is suspended by the corrupt boss after making an unauthorized raid on a drug operation.

Director: Andy Sidaris Cast: Ronn Moss, Dona Speir, Hope Marie Carlton, Harold Diamond, Rodrigo Obregon, Cynthia Brimhall, Patty Duffek, Wolf Larson, Andy Sidaris
Andy Sidaris is back at it. He showcases Playboy models Dona Speir and Hope Marie Carlton as operators of a Hawaiian air freight company who get mixed up with diamond smugglers. Drug enforcement agents (Ronn Moss and Harold Diamond) are assigned to help out. Oh, yes, a killer snake is also on the loose. The weak plot is secondary to the eroticism.

Highlight: gadgets used to deliver bombs.

It turns out that a treasure in gold, stolen by the Japanese from the Philippines in World War II, is located here. A Japanese soldier from the war is still guarding the gold. But others know of the treasure, and many show up to get their hands on it. Can our heroines fend them off? They really are lucky that they had an arsenal stashed in the plane that might help.
