Michele Lupo Movies

Spaghetti western strongman Bud Spencer plays the title role in Michele Lupo's 1982 Italian revenge comedy Bomber. He's Bud "Bomber" Graziano, one-time king of the heavyweight boxing arena, who abandoned his career as a pugilist and hit the high seas, after an ugly defeat at the hands of a U.S. Army goon. Back then, it suited Bomber just fine to run like a cur. But times change. And now, with the opportunity to train an up-and-coming young hopeful, Bomber is all keyed up for an onslaught of slaphappy revenge. Jerry Calla, Mike Miller, Rik Battaglia, Kallie Knoetze and Bobby Rhodes co-star. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide

Giulliano Gemma is Ben and George Eastman is Charlie in this obscure western. B&C are a pair of small-time hustlers, forever just one step ahead of the law. They finally settle in a town where the people are as green as their money. This time, however, Ben and Charlie outsmart themselves, but good. Listed in most sources as an American film, Ben and Charlie looks decidedly European to us (unless of course, it's common practice for bit players to be speaking English while their lips are moving to a different rhythm). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In this sword and sandal spectacle, a Roman journeys to Asia to oversee the building of an aqueduct. His main job is to replace the former slavemaster. Unlike him, the new overseer tries a gentler approach with the slaves. When he proves that his methods are more effective, the former supervisor gets angry and decides to get his revenge by inciting a revolt amongst the captives. He almost succeeds in that all the Romans but the new overseer are slaughtered. One slave helps the gentle Roman to hide. Meanwhile the chief rebels are captured and killed. This leads the kindly supervisor to be blamed, so he and his newfound friend steal out of the city and team up with another rebel. They all dress up as masked gladiators and then take on the Romans. Eventually, the three avengers successfully foil the plans of the Roman troublemaker just before he makes an attempt to take over the local government. As a reward for their courage, the slaves are freed, and the reputation of the soft-hearted supervisor remains unblemished. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
