BLOOD AND DIAMONDS (The Italian Collection) Available Now on Blu-ray from 88 Films

A follow-up of sorts to director Fernando Di Leo’s earlier film, the seminal Caliber 9 (1972), Blood and Diamonds (1977) blasts its way into familiar poliziotteschi territory, leaving scars, bullets and tire tracks in its bloody wake. After being set up by the Mafia gang he is part of, Guido (Claudio Cassinelli) is sent to prison upon which he vows to take revenge on those who betrayed him.
