Again with Laura Gemser in La via della prostituzione (1978) as the man who shows Emanuelle the white slave auction

Amazing role in the crazy mondo movie Emanuelle e le porno notti (1978) as Dr. Ching, a Japanese surgeon who operates on men with small penises - he gorily chops them off and sews on big artificial ones! A very painful scene to watch!

Also a good role in Caro papà (1979) as a bodyguard

And a comedic role as a cardinal at the start of Cornetti alla crema (1981)

Another great role in the Bud Spencer comedy western Occhio alla penna (1981) as the cook

Naturally present in The Salamander (1981) at the funeral at the start of the film

As one of the galactic kings in Giochi erotici nella terza galassia (1981)

And as one of the cardinals in Morte in Vaticano (1982)
