I Ragazzi del Massacro plot
An adult incites a class full of young desperate students to gang up, rape and murder a female colleague. Liberti, a passionate police inspector, is tasked with investigating the case and plans to brutally interrogate the young punks. In the end, he mainly targets the blond boy Fiorello because he thinks he will betray his comrades. However, when Fiorello commits suicide by jumping off the roof, he begins to realize that there was much more going on besides the teacher's murder.

One only for the real die-hard cult enthusiasts.
First half hour involves some rather boring interrogations, then half an hour of boring police investigation, but the last half hour is still something dramatic and then a brutal rape accompanied by noisy fingers-over-blackboard- music.
The ultimate perpetrator and motive are, to say the least, very far-fetched, but the film then narrowly rises to the 3 *.

One for lovers of a mix between giallo and polizziesco. While you are still nestling in your seat, the crucial scene immediately plays out under the opening credits. It is therefore important not to go after a bag of chips. A gruesome scene that is beautifully portrayed by means of excellent editing. Afterwards, some steam goes off the kettle - although - but it transforms into a real police film. Steel-hard interrogations by a motivated inspector - that's how I like it. The film has a socio-politically critical undertone, which adds an extra layer. The young people come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Inspector Capponi questioning the entire justice system.
Also striking is the input of homosexuals and transvestites as part of the bottom of society. A reflection of the society of that time.
Well portrayed by Fernando di Leo and excellent acting performances. I think the musical theme (by Silvano Spadaccino) is a nice bonus.
