A genre of films popular in the 1960s and early 1970s. The films were usually filmed in Spain, and directed by Italian directrors. Several Factors can be looked upon to distinguish Spaghettis from regular American-westerns:
1. Level of Violence (Usually more than American made westerns).
2. The Music (Often scored by Ennio Morriconne and Bruno Nicolai).
3. Sound Effects (Particulary the gun and horse sounds are different from the ones used in American made westerns).
4. Religious imagery, symbols and names.
5. Filmed in Almeria Spain.
6. Italian and Spanish names in the credits (It is highly likely the director will be named Sergio).
7. Out of sync dubbing (Even the Italian versions are dubbed).
8. Stereotypes (Mexicans as theives, women as whores).
9. A shitload of alternate titles.
10. Banned in several countries.
11. Often they star Franco Nero, Lee Van Cleef, Tomas Milian, Klaus Kinski, Luigi Pistili, Mario Brega and other spaghetti regulars.

a style of cooking spaghetti which includes adding ketchup, processed cheese, outrageously red hot dog slices and 5 pounds of sugar (for every pound of pasta). it's so wicked, it could survive an atom bomb dropped directly overhead.
Newscaster: Breaking news, North Korea has sent a missile armed with nuclear warhead towards us!
Mom: kiddo, let's go to the bomb shelter now!
Kid: but mom, i'm still eating a filipino spaghetti!
Mom: just leave it there, it will survive, trust me.

I just crammed all my revising for the year in one day - I know have a bad case of 'spaghetti brain.'
I have spent all day with Angela and she is just such hard work. She has given me 'spaghetti brain' thats for sure.

Spaghetti Dinner refers to the recruitment meetings of cults.
In places like Universities, you will be offered to come to Spaghetti Dinner. There, they will start telling you about their cult and try to convince you to come back.
The spaghetti will probably be laced with drugs intended to render you unconscious, or make you more receptive to their Doomsday predictions.
If you refuse to join, you'll probably wake up in a bath tub with a scar from where they removed your kidney.
