Umberto Lenzi is undoubtedly the king of Italian crime movies, but unfortunately| Syndicate Sadists is not the best examples of his work in this genre. Lenzi's crime flicks tend to be a cut above the rest because he makes films based on stories with a point, and they don't lack direction| but this film feels a bit too wayward to fully fit with the rest of his stuff. The film takes obvious influence from Sergio Leone's landmark western 'A Fistful of Dollars' (which in turn, took influence from Akira Kurosawa's landmark samurai flick Yojimbo), in that it features two warring families and a strong character at the centre. The crime that Lenzi focuses on is kidnapping, and we centre on a character called 'Rambo'. Rambo is dragged into the war between the two families after his brother is killed because of it. Rambo uses his brains and brawn to pit the two families against one another, in the hope of gaining revenge for his brother's death, rescuing a young boy that they've kidnapped, and ultimately letting the two sides destroy one another. The film's biggest asset is undoubtedly Tomas Milian. Milian was put to great use by Lenzi in almost all of his crime thrillers. The range of characters he has played for Lenzi is immense, and this one is easily one of the coolest. The character is called Rambo, which immediately sprang to mind the popular Sylvester Stallone character - but for once, the Italians actually haven't stolen this name as Syndicate Sadists was released first! As usual, the film is wickedly entertaining, as we get to watch Milian get himself involved in the usual array of car chases, shootouts and brawls. Lenzi has got him riding a motorbike this time round, and every scene featuring it and Milian is a real standout! However, the film often feels like it doesn't really have anywhere to go, and this means that the running time is stretched out more than it should be. Compared to the crime films of other Italian directors, Syndicate Sadists is more than above average| but in relation to Lenzi crime flicks such as Almost Human and The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist - it doesn't stand tall as one of Lenzi's best. Still, if you're looking for ninety minutes of testosterone fuelled mayhem - Syndicate Sadists will suffice!。向来以办案手法狠辣勇猛见称的女警刘，由于屡立奇功，深受上司器重，在短时间内已被提升为高级行动组督察。反观其表姐毛，一直唯利是图，工作态度异常消极，虽曾在警界名噪一时，但已难恢复当年勇猛之美誉。在一次行动中，二人刚巧撞正警方线人罗，逼其提供一宗金铺劫案的情报，并立即采取行动，实行四周埋伏，欲将匪帮一网擒住。但案发当日，匪徒火力之强，处事之凶却是二人意料之外，刘亦因此而导致行动失误，大为恼火，怪罪罗线报不足，遂四处寻找……。风和日丽的假期，前往“幸福岛”的观光游轮遭遇了海难，只有宁宇、张欣晨及几名幸存者被冲上了一座没有坐标，没有信号的孤岛。很快，他们意识到这座平静的小岛并非避难所，处处弥散着诡异的气息。宁宇、阿强等人去寻找水源，在巨大的石洞中，他们发现了两具干枯的尸体和一个老旧的红色笔记本。当晚，阿强面色惨白，中邪般喃喃自语。而那个红色笔记本记载了这些幸存者们即将面对的前所未见的恐怖。。
