I've watched tons of exploitation and horror flicks over the years and have noticed that some of these characters have a certain special and complex bond that almost borders on platonic courtship between two straight male protagonists. The films where I've noticed this extremely special relationship are in the incredibly scuzzy Ruggero Deodato movie House On The Edge of The Park, Street Law with Franco Nero, Fernando Arrabal's mind-shatteringly disturbing and surrealistic I Will Walk Like A Crazy Horse and Duke Mitchell's "Wopsploitation (to coin a phrase from the great Stefano Monteforte’s blog), opus,” Massacre Mafia Style.
