We are giving away two full sets of Segio Leone's Dollar series of classic spaghetti westerns. Re-released by MGM in the UK, fully restored, with all new 5.1 surround sound and a fistful of extras. Two lucky winners will take away the following Special Edition DVD's from MGM Home Entertainment.

A Fistfull of Dollars is available for the first time as a DOUBLE DISC SPECIAL EDITION DVD. Fully restored and upgraded to 5.1 surround sound and with over 3 hours of extra material. Academy Award winner CLINT EASTWOOD stars in his trademark role of “The Man With No Name” in this first installment of the Sergio Leone trilogy. A mysterious gunman (Eastwood) has just arrived in San Miguel, a grim, dusty border town where two rival bands of smugglers are terrorizing the impoverished citizens. A master of the “quick draw”, the stranger soon receives offers of employment from each gang. But his loyalty cannot be bought: he accepts both jobs…and sets in motion a plan to destroy both groups of criminals, pitting one against the other in a series of brilliantly orchestrated set-ups, showdowns and deadly confrontations.

For a Few Dollars More, out for the first time as a DOUBLE DISC SPECIAL EDITION DVD featuring over 3 hours of extra material and restored to its fully glory with 5.1 surround sound. Scripted by Luciano Vincenzoni and featuring Ennio Morricone’s haunting musical score, FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE is a modern classic – one of the greatest westerns ever made. Eastwood is a keen-eyed, quick-witted bounty hunter on the bloody trail of Indio, the territory’s most treacherous bandit. But his ruthless rival, Colonel Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef), is determined to bring Indio in first…dead or alive! Failing to capture their prey – or eliminate each other – the two are left with only one option: team up, or face certain death at the hands of Indio and his band of murderous outlaws.

A Fistful of Dynamite stars JAMES COBURN and ROD STEIGER. This explosive DOUBLE DISC SPECIAL EDITION DVD is packed full of extra material and had been fully restored with the inclusion of the missing ending. Juan Miranda (Rod Steiger) is a scruffy cigar chomping bank robber and leader of a bandit family who meets up with Sean Mallory (James Coburn), an IRA explosives expert on the run in Mexico during the height of the revolution in 1913. Together the unlikely duo stage a daring break in to free political prisoners, defend their comrades and risk their lives on a speeding train piled high with explosives!
