Films like Kill Them All and Come Back Alone.

Kill Them All and Come Back Alone (1968) reads as Sombre, breathless, measured heist / civil-war, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, mid-stakes, measured. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
