The Heroin Busters



Sex, Violence And A Kickass Score By Goblin All Fully Restored For The First Time Ever In America!
Fabio Testi (THE BIG RACKET, CONTRABAND) stars as a cold-blooded cop gone deep undercover to take down an international drug syndicate. But when a hair-trigger Interpol agent (David Hemmings of BLOW-UP, DEEP RED and GLADIATOR fame) joins the investigation, the case takes a deadly detour into sexual depravity and sudden violence. Can two tough detectives trapped in a criminal underworld now stay alive long enough to ignite a citywide massacre?

Sherry Buchanan (ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST) co-stars in this action-packed thriller - with an unforgettable motorcycle and airplane chase climax - co-written and directed by Enzo Castellari (HIGH CRIME, INGLORIOUS BASTARDS), featuring a pounding score by legendary prog-rockers Goblin (SUSPIRIA, DAWN OF THE DEAD) and now transferred from the original camera negative.

Handsome and crafty deep cover agent works his way throught the heroin scene from the bottom up. Packed with action and clever little plot twists all along the way, we are led on a twisty journey throught the labyrinth of international heroin smuggling, from Hong Kong, to Rome. Our devil may care hero leads his gang of herion thugs until they lead HIM to Mr. Big. Or in this case, Mr Low Level Middle Guy, who is at least in control of the Local Roman Dope gangs. Its a cool movie, and satisfied my need for a cops and robbers mood today. Fabio Testi gives a great performance as the undercover police agent who is thick with the bad guys, until its time to make his big move. I'd enjoy this one again some time, just to watch him strut around with belt on over a t shirt. Fashionably 70's costumes and those glorious hairdo's of yesteryear never cease to give me a laugh or three, especially when its a tough guy with feathered hair and a mustache! classic!
