If you loved Straw Dogs, try Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Sam Peckinpah, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Straw Dogs, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia is

You wake with a dead stranger’s severed head in the trunk and a million reasons to run. The bounty hunters closing in smell like bad cigars. Peckinpah’s camera traces your blood trail south, through cantinas where the jukebox plays funeral waltzes.
