Plot

Cast

The film is an Italian-Spanish co-production by Selenia and RM Film. It was entirely shot in Italy, between De Paolis Studios in Rome, Anzio, Mazzano Romano and Villa Mussolini in Riccione. Oberdan Trojani served as cinematographer, though in the official credits he was replaced by Spanish cinematographer Pablo Ripoll, a choice made to obtain funding from the Spanish government.

Reception

In a contemporary review, Corriere [della Sera] described the film as 'violent and mediocre'. Italian critic Marco Giusti particularly criticized Glenn Saxson's performance and costumes.
