Reception
In Italy, the film was distributed by Lark and it grossed 593,395,110 lire.[3]
In his analysis of the film, Roberto Curti heavily criticized it, noting "the film's half-baked plot, filled with clichés worthy of a bad sceneggiata" and "the tone [...] closer to that of a lurid comic book".[3]
gollark: My green grew up! Finally, I can use that really useful BSA, `Earthquake`.
gollark: There are, but the BSAs are invisible.
gollark: Then 5/15, 6/18, 7/21 and 8/24.
gollark: With no trophy, 4 eggs and 12 total things max.
gollark: `dLuFs` ash in forest. It kind of sounds pronouncable?
