Reviews

Trivia

The English version is the most common and contains mostly pseudonyms for the cast. The letters are red and are sometimes hard to read against the dark background, fortunately they scroll up and are an easy read at the top against the blue sky.
English cast credits: Richard Harrison, Claudio Camaso, Werner Pochath, Paolo Gozlino [as Paul Lino], Lucio De Santis [as Louis Santis], Mariangela Giordano [as Marian Dana], Goffredo Unger [as Fredi Unger], Spela Rozin [as Sheyla Rosin], Aldo De Carellis [as Albert Carl], Ivan Giovanni Scratuglia [as Ivan G. Scott], Luciano Bonanni [as Larry Bona] , Lucio Zarini [as Louis Zarini], Alberto Dell'Acqua [as Albert Nova], Luciano Pigozzi [as Alan Collins]
Many BluRay + DVD editions of this film use a by now iconic poster artwork from another Richard Harrison film, El Rojo. This most likely started with the Dutch Video For Pleasure VHS.
