Vai Gorilla

Breathless activism with Fabio TESTI

He never denied his beginnings as a cascadeur/stuntman. And why? That is the great strength of Italian film star Fabio Testi.

In this film by Tonino Valerii (producer: Mario Cecchi Gori), the 1970s action star acts as an undercover police officer who takes on the role of a bodyguard (a "gorilla") in order to hunt down the bad guys. Quite passable and entertaining, but definitely not a masterpiece of Italian crime films!

A look at the box office results shows how popular Fabio Testi was in those years: ITL 1.8 billion were sold in Italy. That was more than neat! Wherever it said Fabio Testi, there was always breathless action with hand-made stunts.

Definitely worth seeing action flick with an old school action star!
