Overview

Young, Violent, Dangerous is a 1976 Italian poliziottesco film directed by Romolo Guerrieri. The film is based on the short stories Bravi ragazzi bang bang and In pineta si uccide meglio, which are included in Giorgio Scerbanenco's short story collection Milano calibro 9. The cast includes Stefano Patrizi, Benjamin Lev, Max Delys, Eleonora Giorgi, and Tomas Milian. The story follows Paul, Joe, and Louie, three young men from good families who embark on a bloodthirsty and pointless crime spree. This behavior causes dismay for Paul's girlfriend, played by Eleonora Giorgi, and the local police commissioner, played by Tomas Milian. The group begins their crime wave by robbing a gas station, during which Paul guns down three innocent bystanders. They subsequently decide to rob a bank and a grocery store, with Paul killing additional people. As the entire police force searches for the three criminals, they pick up the girl and head toward the Swiss border while killing everyone in their path.
