Don't Start a Beef with Lee Van Cleef

Next week we are going to discuss the Chuck Norris classic from 1980, "The Octagon". I haven't seen this movie since the early days of cable, when it was in heavy rotation on HBO.

I was just looking at the IMDb entry for the film and noticed that it features Lee Van Cleef. Now I'm super excited to watch it. I don't know much about Lee Van Cleef, but he's the antagonist in one of my favorite western scenes of all time, dueling with Clint Eastwood in "For a Few Dollars More".

The Capital of Nebraska Is Lincoln!
