Arrow Video in the UK are to release a remastered 4K UHD and Blu-ray limited edition of the Sergio Leone classic Western For a Few Dollars More.
Fully uncut and newly restored in 4K with a slew of new and archival bonus features, the Man with No Name returns in deadly style.
In the Old West, two rival bounty killers (Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef) hunt the same target: the psychopathic bandit known as “El Indio” (Gian Maria Volonté). The price on his head is high – but one of the hunters harbours a secret personal vendetta. Forming an uneasy alliance, the pair succeed in infiltrating El Indio’s gang… but as greed begets violence, the hunters become the hunted, leading to a final showdown in a circle of death.
