WEAPONS OF DEATH is an unexpected and unusual sequel to the Lenzi hit VIOLENT NAPLES. Sadly, Lenzi doesn't return for this production, although Mario Caiano is a more than able replacement, and neither does Maurizio Merli as the tough protagonist. He's replaced by the less beefier Leonard Mann, who's less imposing but equally tough. The one returning character is the kid whose father owned a garage in the first film, but other than that this tells the typical story of an endless crimewave and a head honcho bad guy, played with menacing relish by Henry Silva. The plot is brisk and the action brisker, with limitless stylish vehicle chases through the streets of Naples and all manner of shoot-outs. Great fun!
