Double Game

[2] The fatal stabbing of a wealthy doctor, the rape and strangulation of a seventeen-year-old girl, and a series of destructive smash-and-grabs keep police inspectors Danieli (Emanuel Cannarsa) and Moretti (George Hilton) working overtime.

In addition, there is a growing gang war between the established local dons and an invading French crime syndicate that threatens the city.

[2] Double Game was made because director Carlo Ausino was unable to find a distribution deal for his previous film "Prima che il sole tramonti" (1976) and so he asked the producers for advice.

Needing a star to promote the film the lead role was offered to popular genre actor George Hilton.

The crew had to use cars from a wrecking yard that were unable to go very fast and director Carlo Ausino used camera tricks to make them appear to be going much faster.
