This turned out to be far better and way more bonkers than some of the stuff recommended to me in this thread. Silva kills as the mafioso anti-hero lead. This is one of Andrea Bianchi's better flicks; even out doing Lenzi's usual ultra violent movies from that era.

Whole film is up on YouTube:

yea it's a really good one

I've realized over the last few years that Silva is a eurocrime subgenre onto himself, dude did as much as Nero or Merli or any of those guys. Not much of his work came up in the early years of cult stuff surfacing on DVD, but now it's starting to show up more. The rarelust site has rips of a few of them.
