MASSACRE MAFIA STYLE (1978)


 I re-watched this again recently and it was even better on the second viewing.  You get crazy bright beautiful 70's blood as a result of many mob executions, you get mobsters being blown up, you get absurd racism with one pimp referred to as Super-spook throughout the whole movie , a crucifixion, acting that's about as good as someone obviously reading their lines can be and the best thing is the totally nutso speeches given by writer, director and star Mr. Duke Mitchell.  He goes on about how much he loves Italian mothers and other such topics as if the whole movie was just an excuse for him to give these heartfelt speeches.  It is a thing of beauty to behold.  You keep waiting for everyone around him to get teary-eyed as he talks about how downtrodden the Sicilians have been through history.  I certainly wouldn't disagree with anything Duke says.  If the idea of a cheap-jack GODFATHER movie with scenes of unintentional hilarity appeal to you then this is your movie.  My copy of this is titled THE EXECUTIONER but M.M.S. is such a catchier name.

You also get one of the greatest opening scenes in anything which you see most of here:
