From 1976, Nick the Sting is another slam-bang action movie from pulp movie master Fernando di Leo (The Italian Connection; Shoot First, Die Later). 

Luc Merenda (Puzzle) stars as small time conman Nick Hezard who gets caught up in the bigger scams of crime boss Robert Clark (Lee J. Cobb, On the Waterfront) in Geneva, Switzerland. Nick gets involved in jewel-related insurance scams, but soon realizes that Clark is about to execute a double cross. So Nick gets a team together and concocts an elaborate scam of his own involving false arrests, fake murders, and prop police stations. This high stakes game of double and triple cross will either put Nick on easy street or straight into the grave.

Special Features:
-A video history of ’60s & ’70s split-screen cinema by Mike Malloy
