Who played the black cop searching for Greene through the whole movie? I know he played a cop in both MANGIATI VIVI and NEW YORK RIPPER.
Also, who played the thug with sunglasses who gets shot about mid-way through the film? He plays a thug in lots of Italian crime movies (ROMA A MANO ARMATA, etc.) but is never credited.. Anyone know?

the guy with the shotgun? That's Claudio Cassinelli. He died during the making of the film hence his rather abrupt exit. Saxon plays his boss, the guy who dies at the very end of the movie.
shareHaven't seen this in a while but from memory the thug in the sunglasses is played by Sergio Testori, a very recognizable stuntman/actor who appeared in numerous Italian genre efforts.
shareAre you sure it's Sergio Testori? I've cross listed him in a lot of films and it could also be Artemio Antonini. The actor with the sunglasses (in this movie) was DEFINITELY in "Paura in Citta" (playing a bad guy)... plus he:
-played the prison janitor in CYNIC THE RAT AND THE FIST...
-the motorcycle riding bad guy who pretends to help the woman with her car in ROMA A MANO ARMATA,
-and one of the bad guys in the garage in DA CORLEONE A BROOKLYN
I also thought for a while that he may be a Mioni or a Dell'Acqua.
Looks like you were right, according to this site:

It's an awesome site! It also helped me solve the mystery of "Who is Fortunato Arena" too!
Yeah, the Pollanet site is wonderful, even though it does contain an error or two.
Testori has been in lots and lots of films. He's also one of the flamethrower guys at the start of AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK, and he can be seen lifting weights in the gym when he gets attacked and killed by the demons in DEMONS 2 etc. I've always liked him. Artemio Antonini is a different guy with a pretty different look.
