contemplation, broad humour, feminist inquiry — it is a masterful hybrid of tried and true Hollywood conventions and the more confrontational style of the Italian Westerns that supplanted American oaters in the mainstream consciousness". Influence Quentin Tarantino said the film was one of his inspirations for Kill Bill. "Why I love Hannie Caulder so much is Robert Culp. He is so magnificent in that movie. I actually think there's a bit of similarity between Pai Mei and the Bride (in Kill Bill: Volume 2)." Dominique Mainon and James Ursini note in The Modern Amazons: Warrior Women On-Screen that "With Sam Raimi's The Quick and the Dead (1995), producer-star Sharon Stone revisits the domain carved out by Raquel Welch in Hannie Caulder. . . . Like Hannie Caulder before her, as a woman who has taken on the traditional role of a man, she is derided and shunned for that decision." Home media The film was released on VHS.
