Man of Violence, also known as Moon and The Sex Racketeers, is a 1970 British crime film produced and directed by Pete Walker and starring Michael Latimer, Virginia Wetherell, Luan Peters and Derek Aylward.
Unprinciped loan shark Moon is hired for industrial espionage by tycoon Sam Bryant, who also pays him to investigate protection racketeer Charles Grayson.
