“Did you ever notice in all these spaghetti Westerns ...”
Everything you hear is dubbed in either by the guys putting in the new language sound effects or foley artists who do the same thing with respect to the original sound effects. I have no Idea why they can’t use the original sound effects track in the dubbed version but they don’t seem to. The originals are always a bit more backed off or subtle. I hate the super-hot-too-well-recorded effects that result in the sound you describe. It’s a pet peeve of mine.
Yeah, the dubbing is bad and the Italian actors seem trying too hard to sound like gruff Americans. It comes off badly. But as I said,it’s that weird noise you hear whenever the actors are walking or running, especially in those old ‘Hercules’’ films. I think it was a series because I remember watching them on Saturday afternoons as a kid around ten or eleven years old(I’m now fifty-eight).
