Ricco the Mean Machine (Italian: Un tipo con una faccia strana ti cerca per ucciderti, Spanish: Ajuste de cuentas, also known as The Cauldron of Death and The Dirty Mob) is a 1973 Italian-Spanish crime-thriller film directed by Tulio Demicheli and starring Christopher Mitchum and Barbara Bouchet.[1] It acquired a cult following because of its violent and gory scenes, including a graphic castration.[2] The US title was actually a misspelling of the main character's name Rico.[2]
