Contraband (1980)
7/10
Not the average cop movie

This movie sure as hell is full of graphic and sexual violence. But this we all knew before watching it. It is really redundant to say that a Lucio Fulci's movie is full of gore and may contain some rape scenes.

Luca and his brother are two smugglers who got deceived during an operation. As story unfolds, we watch a sort of gang dispute full of killings. Despite all we can say about the plot not being very interesting, Fulci manages to make the whole movie seem to last "only 10 minutes".

Alright, it is not remarkable to say that we've liked this movie due to it's gory death scenes, nudity, shootings and so on so forth. But I mean, thruth be told: it is what it is. Let's just not stick to the plot simplicity and moral values this time and say that it was good because of all that things which are actually bad.

It wasn't Fulci's best effort, but I will give it seven out of ten for being a so-called "eurocrime" movie so "out of the box".
