“We've got a job that needs a specialist.” The
1970s were a dangerous time in Italy. Sometimes dubbed 'the Years of Lead', and
rocked by the likes of the Red Brigade, tough criminal actions begot tough
police responses. It was from this raging inferno that the 'poliziotteschi'
genre was born, featuring hard-boiled coppers akin to Dirty Harry and
his ilk, but with a uniquely Italian swagger to them and their violent actions.
These Euro cop flicks thrived alongside the scintillating violence of the more
enduring gialli movement, with thrills and excesses to match. Massimo Dallamano
finely crafted a superb giallo in the form of What Have You Done To Solange?
and mixed the trappings of those gory murder mysteries with the poliziotteschi
in What Have They Done To Your Daughters?, but with Super Bitch –
aka Blue Movie Blackmail – it was all about crooked cops and drug
smuggling.
