The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (1962)

A subgenre which was brought to attention by a larger audience by Quentin Tarantino's ''Inglourious Basterds''.

It's a lesser known history of the Italian B-movies. These types of B-war films have never enjoyed enormous popularity in Italy because they were made mostly just to make money, especially with foreign distribution in poor countries and little conviction on the part of the producers. 

Macaroni Combat were Italian war films inspired by Hollywood films of the 60s/70s produced to try to make money. They often used titles and plots from the various blockbusters made in the US. All had seasoned actors aka "Italian yankees" and often they were older stars whose popularity had faded in their own countries.

As with the spaghetti westerns or the polizio genres, it rode the wave of success the original genre films started in Hollywood. Instead of The Dirty Dozen, The Guns of Navarone or Battle of the Bulge, these were films made in De Paolis (Rome) or the Egyptian desert with titles such as: And The Guns Still Thunder, The Battle of El Alamein, Commandos and Eagles Over London.

The typical team was made up of an Italian director, Italo-Spanish technical staff, and a cast of Italian and Spanish actors and sometimes German and French, sometimes a fading Hollywood star.

The films were primarily shot in Europe and later, the Philippines.
