There is only one rule in the Wild West, the rule of the gun. Lead a fistful of Yankee soldiers on a mission to bring order to this chaotic frontier, facing desperados, robber barons, and more in a spaghetti western RTS adventure like no other.
A lot of the classical westerns were produced by Italians. Even ones with Clint Eastwood. Hence the term spaghetti Western.
Italian productions were also profilic in making Mad Max clones (post apocalyptic action) and Conan clones (sword and sandals action) in the 80s, but I am not aware of a specific name for these styles.
All my life and I never looked it up to see why they were called that.
Also always wondered as a kid about that Italian guy in the California Raisins VHS I watched on repeat and now that makes sense too https://youtu.be/aPCOfuXYRhs at 13:08 mark. The full thing is still great to watch, if anyone is interested. I apparently busted a few couches dancing to this as a kid lol

Spaghetti-pocalypse? Spag and sword fantasy?
Pesto-apocalyptic, Calzone the Barbarian…
I tried.
Those are infinitely better
