Mario Pinzauti (born May 1, 1930 in Rome ) is an Italian film director and screenwriter as well as pulp writer .

Life

Pinzauti initially worked under colorful pseudonyms as an author of notebooks . He wrote a total of over 100 novels as Perry Landers for the series Narratori americani del brividio , as Jim Reevels for Schedario FBI , as Fred J. Logan for Criminal division and as Harry Small for I racconti di Dracula .

In 1962 he got the opportunity to work out a script for Il tiranno di Siragusa . In the same year he made his own film, Interpol morte al molo 18 , which, however , remained unfinished shortly before the final cut and dubbing due to financial difficulties . In the following years he worked in various functions for numerous films, often in the post-production stage . In 1970 he began again directing gaudy, exploitative action films, including two spaghetti westerns and back-to-back sex films from 1976, after which he retired from the film business and worked for the RAI . His films have rarely been shown outside of Italy.
