Lee Van Cleef movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. John Carpenter
S-Tier from Shout Factory. There are multiple packaging options but the discs are identical across the standard edition, steelbook, and collector's edition. If you're new to this one and the black levels look crushed, that's normal. It was shot almost entirely at night on a low budget, and Carpenter himself has said that's just how it looks. The Eagle Pictures Italian release is a better-looking transfer for anyone willing to import. The steelbook art is a love-it-or-hate-it situation, some people think it looks more Mad Max than Snake Plissken.

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Leone's sequel. Arrow's Dollars trilogy 4Ks are the versions to get.
Arrow Video · 4K + Blu-ray
Leone's epic lives in the top tier of reference discs alongside Dune and Lawrence of Arabia. The transfer does justice to the widescreen desert photography and the Morricone score hits different in lossless.
