Umberto Lenzi is undoubtedly the king of Italian crime movies, but unfortunately| Syndicate Sadists is not the best examples of his work in this genre. Lenzi's crime flicks tend to be a cut above the rest because he makes films based on stories with a point, and they don't lack direction| but this film feels a bit too wayward to fully fit with the rest of his stuff. The film takes obvious influence from Sergio Leone's landmark western 'A Fistful of Dollars' (which in turn, took influence from Akira Kurosawa's landmark samurai flick Yojimbo), in that it features two warring families and a strong character at the centre. The crime that Lenzi focuses on is kidnapping, and we centre on a character called 'Rambo'. Rambo is dragged into the war between the two families after his brother is killed because of it. Rambo uses his brains and brawn to pit the two families against one another, in the hope of gaining revenge for his brother's death, rescuing a young boy that they've kidnapped, and ultimately letting the two sides destroy one another. The film's biggest asset is undoubtedly Tomas Milian. Milian was put to great use by Lenzi in almost all of his crime thrillers. The range of characters he has played for Lenzi is immense, and this one is easily one of the coolest. The character is called Rambo, which immediately sprang to mind the popular Sylvester Stallone character - but for once, the Italians actually haven't stolen this name as Syndicate Sadists was released first! As usual, the film is wickedly entertaining, as we get to watch Milian get himself involved in the usual array of car chases, shootouts and brawls. Lenzi has got him riding a motorbike this time round, and every scene featuring it and Milian is a real standout! However, the film often feels like it doesn't really have anywhere to go, and this means that the running time is stretched out more than it should be. Compared to the crime films of other Italian directors, Syndicate Sadists is more than above average| but in relation to Lenzi crime flicks such as Almost Human and The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist - it doesn't stand tall as one of Lenzi's best. Still, if you're looking for ninety minutes of testosterone fuelled mayhem - Syndicate Sadists will suffice!。在某个经常停电的都市中，恐怖四处蔓延，人们惶惶不可终日。一个连环杀手神出鬼没，以极其残酷的手法杀害女性。因其经常在停电时出没，所以被人们称为“停电夜杀手”。 某晚，七个素不相识的人被困在停电的写字楼内。他们中的克莉丝蒂•沃勒斯（Dominique Swain 饰）是唯一见过“停电夜杀手”容颜的人，而这也使她成为那个杀人恶魔的目标。其余六个人必须联合起来保护克莉丝蒂不被杀害，并找出逡巡在他们周围的杀手……。《好妈妈》根据真实故事改编，讲述了在光荣会黑手党中长大的三位勇敢女性的生活。她们决定与刚刚抵达卡拉布里亚的检察官安娜·科莱斯合作。 这是三个女人为自己的生命和孩子的未来而战、试图削弱犯罪帝国的故事。。
