Production

Il marchio di Kriminal is the follow-up to the film Kriminal (1966), directed by Umberto Lenzi.[3][4] Roel Bos, the main actor of the film states that the film was shot in Rome and on a cruise between Genoa to Beirut, Baalbeck, Byblos and Madrid.[5] The film's credits note that Manuel Parada composed the score, but it is actually the work of Piero Umiliani.[5] Nando Cicero is sometimes credited in aiding Fernando Cerchio in directing the film while Roel Bos states that to his "knowledge Cicero had nothing to do with the movie."[5][6]

Release

Il marchio di Kriminal was released in Italy in 1967.[1]

Reception

In a contemporary review, Italian newspaper La Stampa gave a brief plot summary of the film, which stated that the plot summary alone indicates the quality of the film.[7]

In a retrospective review, Italian film critic and historian Roberto Curti noted that "despite a disappointing second half, which again transforms the movie into a banal travelogue adventure [...] Il marchio di Kriminal is ultimately more successful than its predecessors in conveying the feeling of Magnus & Bunker's grimly ironic comic book."[2]
