THE NARC aka MARK THE NARC aka BLOOD, SWEAT AND FEAR Uncut

Under discussion:

A classic! Gasparri owns the role of Mark Terzi, a cop from the Dirty Harry school of thinking. Inspector Terzi has been working a long time on a case that has led him close to the top narcotics handlers in Milan. The problem is that he can’t break the case open by conventional methods so he begins to handle things his way. When Terzi starts making notable progress very bad things begin to happen to the people around him. Also, he has a young woman named Irena at his apartment that he essentially rescued near the top of the film. She was high on heroin and in shock when the police arrived while the guy she started out with floats in the pool, murdered via the introduction of some tainted drugs. Irena is also indirectly connected to what Terzi is involved with and that leads to yet more trouble. Cobb is the bad man at the top and he has no intention of letting any fired-up inspector stand in the way of his investments! There’s a lot more to it, but we won’t ruin it here. The Narc is a true high-point in the Italian crime genre. It features blazing action, intense drama, biting suspense, plenty of serious ass kicking, a top-of-the-line musical score courtesy of Maestro Stelvio Cipriani, and some impressively stylistic direction from Stelvio Massi. A new favorite around here for all these reasons and more… One exceptional highlight (of many); Terzi unloads his magnum into a carload of bank robbers as they try to make their escape, when the car loses control and is flipped it begins to slide down the street towards our hero who simply steps aside and watches the wreckage go by! Fantastic!
