Dogman's Rabies: Underdog
Rabbia furiosa - Er Canaro
Inspired by one of the most savage and violent crimes committed in Rome in the 1980s, "Rabbia Furiosa" is the story of Fabio, a small-time neighborhood crook, known as “Er Canaro” (the Dog Man) who suffers years of abuse and mistreatment from Claudio, a local boss of the criminal underworld. When he is driven to desperation and the brink of madness, he will carry out a terrible and bloody act of vengeance...
Why it matters
A brutal dive into urban decay and raw vengeance that channels Italian crime horror through a visceral, true-crime lens.
- Anchored by a chilling, unfiltered performance that captures the slow burn of rage and despair before eruption.
- Practical grit and grime paint a claustrophobic portrait of 1980s Rome’s criminal underbelly — think Scorsese meets Italian exploitation.
- For fans of true-crime horror and revenge tales that don’t flinch from the ugly, corrosive cost of violence.
- Not for the faint-hearted: its slow simmer builds to a savage, unforgettable climax that lingers long after the credits.
