Massimo Mazzucco (born 20 July 1954 in Turin) is an Italian filmmaker has produced documentary films such as: "American Moon", The New American Century and Cancer -The Forbidden Cures.

Mazzucco is also the administrator of luogocomune.net, an Italian news site concentrating mostly on the September 11 WTC attacks.

[citation needed] Some criticism was directed to Mazzucco after his decision, starting September 2008, to publicize an alternative cancer therapy based on sodium bicarbonate and proposed by Italian ex-doctor Tullio Simoncini.

Said therapy is currently unproven, and Simoncini was expelled from the Italian Medical Association after he was tried and found guilty of fraud and manslaughter, since a patient died, allegedly as result of Simoncini's treatment.
