The script is by Larry Cohen -who was originally slated to direct but was removed from the project after shooting began .His script has little to do with the original book and if you want a movie that follows the Spillane plot then you need to go back to the original . Mike Hammer goes hunting ... Read More Rating:  - Armand Assante as "Mike Hammer".For Mature Adults Only! Contains male nudity and full frontal female nudity. Scenes of orgy and sexual situations.
