Natura contro
Natura contro( English: Against Nature), also known in English as The Green Inferno and Cannibal Holocaust II, is a 1988 Italian cannibal adventure film directed by Antonio Climati.
Climati had no intention of making a sequel to" Cannibal Holocaust", and the title was used by distributors of the film to cash in on the success and notoriety of the earlier film.
It is best known among cult fans as the film that effectively ended the cannibal genre, which, by then, had virtually fallen extinct.
In 2002, British distributor VIPCO released" Natura Contro" on VHS and DVD as" Cannibal Holocaust II", the film's most well known name.
This was the last film directed by Climati, who had gained notoriety as a major player in the mondo film genre.
Although fictional, this film deals with many common tropes of mondo films, including exotic customs and locales, and cruel violence.

Black Hand (Chicago)
Black Hand extortion was a criminal tactic used by gangsters based in major cities in the United States.
In Chicago, Black Hand extortion began around 1900 and had all but faded away by 1920, replaced by the" Mafia."
The Mafia was initially organized by Johnny Torrio and further organized by Al Capone sometime later.
Black Handers in Chicago were mostly Italian men from Calabria and Sicilian men who would send anonymous extortion notes to their victims emblazoned with a feared old country symbol: the" Black Hand".
The Black Hand was a precursor to organized crime( Mafia) although it is still a tactic practiced by the Mafia and used in organized crime to this day.
Black Hand blackmail was also common in New York and New Orleans.
Victims would pay up or be beaten, shot, or have their place of business bombed.
Starting around 1909, The Black Hand was causing difficulties for mob boss Big Jim Colosimo a former Black hand gangster and owner of brothels throughout Chicago.
In en effort to fix the problem Colosimo recruited Johnny Torrio, a member of New York's Five Points Gang who would eventually become the famous successor of Big Jim Colosimo and then later mentor Al Capone as the organized crime ruler of Chicago.
But originally Torrio came to Chicago to fix the problem of the Black Hand which was threatening Colosimo's life with demands for cash to insure his physical safety.
