Plot edit

Montano's dead body is found after being kidnapped by Maurice. The police plans to use the same ways criminals use and infiltrate Tony Lo Bianco in the gang. Tony is a former FBI agent who is sent back to Italy for many crimes. Police Superintendent Ferrari disagrees but Tony begins his operations and meets Paulette, Maurice's daughter. Tony and Paulette find out that perhaps Maurice is not responsible for Montano's death and they discover they have to struggle to save their lives.[2]

Production edit

Don't Trust the Mafia was filmed at R.T.A. Elios in Rome and on location in Aversa.[1] It was one of the three crime films director Mario Bianchi filmed in Naples between 1978 and 1979.[1]

Release edit

Don't Trust the Mafia was released in Italy on 12 May 1979, where it was distributed by ASA Cinematografica.[1] The film grossed 16.5 million Italian lira on its theatrical release.[1] The film was released with the English-language title on Danish VHS as Don't Trust the Mafia.[1]

Reception edit

In a retrospective review, Roberto Curti stated that Bianchi's direction was "perfunctory as ever" with his "shoestring budget" being revealed "in every shot".[1]
