Luciano Possi, Italian exploitation cinema's tough-guy -- and one of the most identifiable yet liettle-known faces -- exposed. With nearly seventy films under his belt, almost exclusively in the colourful, controversial realm of Italian exploitation, character actor Luciano Rossi (1934-2005) remains one of Italian cinema's unsung heroes, existing only as a footnote in Italian-focused film criticism.

Volume 3 in the Cinema Classics Collection from FAB Press, a series of budget-priced, highly collectable studies of historically important movies, genres, directors and film stars
