Director Carlo Ausino couldn't find distribution for his previous film Prima che il sole tramonti (1976) so he asked the producers what to do. Euro crime films about violent cities were popular at the time ('Roma violenta (1975)', O Império do Crime (1976)) and they knew he lived in Turin so they asked him to make a crime film called Torino violenta to make up for the lost money. Carlo agreed only if they promised distribution.
Director Carlo Ausino and the crew were anxious about working with 'George Hilton' because they all respected him from his westerns.
The production team had trouble finding false police cars. They were forced to use cars from a demolition site that were unable to go very fast. Director Carlo Ausino was then forced to use camera tricks to make them seem to be going much faster.
To help out director Carlo Ausino took one of the prop cars home to paint in order to look like a police car for the film. Someone gave an anonymous tip to the police that a suspicious person was painting a car to look like a police car. Because terrorism was high in Italy at the time the police showed up at the director's home wondering what he was doing.
