Almost Human. 1974.

The daughter of a wealthy business man is kidnap and a homicide detective who works on his own rules goes after the kidnappers.

A nicely shot, good paced action, crime feature from Umberto Lenzi, Thomas Milan plays the local petty criminal who plans on retiring with a load of cash and kidnaps a girl and demands a ransom that he can live off. Henry Silva plays the detective who has been trying to bring down the criminal.

This one I have always enjoyed, a nice game of cat and mouse, a bit of Russian Roulette with a chandelier, watching Thomas Milan become more off the rails with paranoia. Henry Silva actually playing a good guy who goes off the rails himself with determination, from start to finish this is one big enjoyable ride of a movie.
