Charles Bronson look-alike goes From Hell to the Wild West

From Hell to the Wild West Rene Perez Robert Bronzi

I miss the tough-guy actors of the past, stars like Lee Van Cleef, Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, the young Clint Eastwood, etc. They're lost to time now… but there is an actor out there who is willing to be Bronson's modern stand-in. 

Robert "Bronzi" Kovacs bears a striking resemblance to Bronson, and he is starting to build a career on the fact that he looks like the DEATH WISH star, who passed away in 2003. Bronzi's first acting role is in writer/director Rene Perez's horror film FROM HELL TO THE WILD WEST.

I wasn't able to dig up an official synopsis for the film, but a poster and teaser trailer are available for it, and it seems pretty self-explanatory. There's a slasher on the loose in the old west, and a cowboy who looks a lot like Charles Bronson is probably going to have to deal with this issue.

FROM HELL TO THE WILD WEST would already have my attention just for the fact that it's a mixture of the horror and western genres, a blend that I love to see. But when you add in this Bronson/Bronzi angle, it becomes a film that I need to watch as soon as possible.

Thankfully, Gravitas Ventures will be releasing FROM HELL TO THE WILD WEST on VOD in January.
