Reception
In his book Italian Crime Filmography 1968-1980, Roberto Curti noted that "the sociological ambitions end up in excruciating banalities, such as the confrontation between Mancuso and his poor but honset wife (Nicoletta Rizzi)"[3]
The score by Gianni Marchetti was re-used partially in the films Emanuelle's Revenge by Joe D'Amato and SS Girls by Bruno Mattei.[3]
gollark: Hmm. Looking at this, *hydrogen* at least is widely available, so just pipe your boron into a reactor with that and it runs energy-positive.
gollark: Ah, the difficulties in combining balance and realism...
gollark: I mean, fusing the boron is energy-negative, but DO IT ANYWAY!
gollark: Fuse it!
gollark: Also I have no reason to, really.
