Honestly, at your own risk, but if you can rent check these out.

Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (a wonderful mess)
The Getaway (Steve McQueen is the bomb yo!, see Bullitt (sp?))
The Wild Bunch

Going thru a Sam Peckinpah faze...

P.S. Again RENT, do not BUY! At your OWN RISK! have a beer (or ten) while watching these films. Again strange stuff, but worth watching. At YOUR own risk though. The Samurai becomes Westernized. Clint Eastwood doesn't even come close.
