Like Rabid Dogs

Like the previous movie I watched from the Years of Lead box set, this is about a gang of three thugs who assault and kill for thrills. The high-falutin concept here is that these are children of wealth and power who act out as a revolt against the wrongs of their rich progenitors. If it’s any consolation, at least the filmmakers did not frame them as heroes. That job falls to the inspector and his policewoman lover. So far that’s a pretty solid setup but unfortunately the terrible script prevents this from being anything more than raw exploitation of the female stars. All sort of details are set up and never pay off. The clearest example of this is when we learn that one of the villains is a expert race car driver but then there is never a scene with her in a car chase. So much lost potential.
