    A lot of the classical westerns were produced by Italians. Even ones with Clint Eastwood. Hence the term spaghetti Western.

    Italian productions were also profilic in making Mad Max clones (post apocalyptic action) and Conan clones (sword and sandals action) in the 80s, but I am not aware of a specific name for these styles.
