Summary
  • "This box set gathers five films from the heyday of the "poliziotteschi"--the umbrella term used to describe this diverse body of films."--From container
  • No, the case is happily resolved: While out fishing at a tranquil lakeside one peaceful afternoon, Fabio Santamaria inadvertently witnesses the brutal murder of a young woman. Terrified that he too will be targeted by the maniac, Fabio resolves to keep his head down and say nothing. However, the killer--respected professor Ranieri--secretly hatches a plot to avert suspicion by framing Fabio for the crime. And, as he frantically protests his innocence, Fabio quickly discovers that the entire system is stacked against him
  • Savage three: By day, Ovidio and his two friends work at a data center. After work, they blow off steam by committing random acts of savage violence, swiftly graduating from sparking a riot at a football game to vehicle theft, rape and murder. The police are convinced the recent spate of crimes is politically motivated, but world-weary veteran Commissario Santagà suspects a far more terrifying explanation: that these young men are motivated by nothing more than boredom and disaffection with civilized society. As Ovidio's behavior escalates, a psychological game of cat-and-mouse ensues between the two adversaries, building towards a shocking final confrontation
  • Like rabid dogs: Three wealthy youths--ringleader Tony and his friends Rico and Silvia--get their kicks from committing a series of random thefts and murders. Commissario Muzi is on the case but can't make anything stick on the over-privileged thugs. Realizing that justice is a rare commodity when it comes to the wealthy and powerful, Muzi and his lover and fellow cop, German, plot to entrap Tony and his friends--but fail to anticipate just how ruthless these "rabid dogs" can be
  • Colt 38 special squad: The city of Turin is in the grip of a brutal crime boss known as "the Marseillaise," and plenty of cops have good reason to want him dead--none more than Inspector Vanni, whose wife was murdered by the ruthless gangster. Having exhausted every other avenue, Vanni forms a crack squad of motorcycle-riding, shotgun toting elite officers, tasked with meting out justice on the margins of the law. But when Marseillaise launches a bombing campaign designed to extort a vast ransom from the city's authorities, Vanni finds himself in a race against time to exact his revenge and avert disaster
  • Highway racer: Devil-may-care ace Marco Palma of the Rome police's Mobile Squad has a reputation for risk-taking--making him the perfect candidate for an undercover op to take down "Il Nizzardo," a fellow hotrodder and the ringleader of a band of bank robbers. Posing as a crook himself, Palma soon inveigles his way into Il Nizzardo's group. But with only his wits and souped-up Ferrari 250 GTE sports car to rely on, can Palma fly under the radar long enough to take down his nemesis, or will the ruthless gangster sniff him out and put paid to his daredevil tactics once for all?
