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!。80年代初的一个晚秋，边远山区的四等小站"枫亭站"呈现出一片热气腾腾的景象。养鸭专业户泉根赶着大批亟待外运的凤头肥鸭，同十几个亟待运货的货主围住货运员哈小乐吵闹，甚至跑到卜站长那里去告状。看到电扇厂的王厂长也吵着要运电扇，卜站长火了："你那些退货电扇，运出去，退回来，来回折腾，这铁路成了你踢来踢去的足球了！"这几年，小站的货运量连翻了4倍，大批货物来不及运，车站场地都堆满了。为此，卜站长心急火燎。这时，精明能干的哈小乐献上一计：将当年的"枫亭烧鸭"王二请出来，办个烧鸭联营店，这样就能解决大批活鸭的外运问题。不料，省食品店的吴经理捷足先登，已经请走了烧鸭师傅王二。一计不成，站长和哈小乐又想起另一"高招"，最终使王二改变了去省里的主意，高兴地留在枫亭，办起了烧鸭联营店，吴经理则改为和枫亭站签订在省里代销烧鸭的合同。同时，王厂长也请到省里的电扇厂的高工程师...。影片故事讲述主人公在同一个城市的三个时代、三个季节、三个夜晚中所经历的事件。。
