    Cashing in on that kung fu craze

    7 HOURS OF VIOLENCE is an odd and not entirely successful little Italian crime film, starring the ubiquitous George Hilton of many a giallo and spaghetti western. Here, he's almost unrecognisable beneath greasy hair and a '70s porn star moustache, playing a hitman who gets set up in the opening scene (a familiar trope in cinema even today). What follows turns out to be more of a martial arts flick than anything else, undoubtedly cashing in on the kung fu craze inspired by ENTER THE DRAGON. Hilton screams and kicks his way through endless Chinese assassins in a series of adequate fights, but outside of that this doesn't really go anywhere.
