British label 88 Films has detailed its upcoming Collector's Edition of Umberto Lenzi's The Tough Ones a.k.a. Rome Armed to the Teeth (1976), starring Maurizio Merli, Arthur Kennedy, Giampiero Albertini, Ivan Rassimov, and Biagio Pelligra. The release will be available for purchase on August 30.
Synopsis: Umberto Lenzi, legendary director of Cannibal Ferox, kicked off the Italian police film craze with this hyper-kinetic, ultra-violent, brain-blasting action thriller. Maurizio Meril stars as an Italian Dirty Harry, punching and shooting his way through the sleazy drug, sex and crime infested cesspool of mid-'70s Rome, on the trail of a sadistic, machine gun-toting hunchback, played by Tomas Milian (star of The Big Gundown).
Boasting a state-of-the-art 4K transfer of Lenzi's uncensored director's cut, the new edition of The Tough Ones includes an incredible slate of special features and a "Grindhouse Version" of the US Brutal Justice release.
