American spaghetti western star Tony Anthony knew the genre’s popularity was waning by the mid 1970s and decided to shoot the works with Get Mean, the fourth and final entry in his offbeat “Stranger” series.
What do we mean by offbeat? For starters, these westerns were produced by ABKCO Records founder/Beatles manager Allen Klein and used rock music by the Isley Brothers and Bob Seger in the TV spots and trailers! If you haven’t seen the three previous films – Stranger in Town (1966), The Stranger Returns (1967), and The Silent Stranger (1968) – don’t worry, they all work on their own as standalone films…and even if you have seen all three, you’ll still spend most of Get Mean wondering who spiked your popcorn! Thanks to a mysterious mirrored sphere with time-bending powers, a Spanish princess pursued by Vikings in an American west ghost town hires the world-weary Stranger to escort her back to Spain, where they encounter barbarians, Moors and Mongols sharing the same century as a Shakespeare-quoting villain who thinks he’s Richard III. A violent, goofy, politically-incorrect and completely bizarre way to wrap a series that was pretty darn strange from the get-go. - Chris Poggiali
