his parole participates in a jewellery store robbery in downtown Toronto. Of course, the robbery takes a turn for the worse as Testi's accomplice, Joe (Played by Eli Wallach from Christopher Columbus and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly) starts shooting up the place and kills a young man. After a lengthy car chase (a standard in Lucidi's films), Testi and Wallach split up to meet again across the border. Wallach entrust Testi with the diamonds and his really nice German car, which Testi wrecks somewhere in the Canadian countryside. Testi finds his way to the last Chance Motel right in the middle of nowhere, run by none else than Massimo Girotti (Baron Blood) and his intoxicating wife Ursula Andress (Slave of The Cannibal God, The Sensuous Nurse).

Advantages: a really nice place to stay cosy, clean, modern friendly handy and in expensive Disadvantages: we have nothing negitive to say about this place
we travel to brisbane on a regular basis,but found the Edmondstone by accident a few months ago.

The staff were helpful ...

The bar, situated to the rear of the Motel, is large and comfortable with sofas and armchairs, and has a view of the pool.
Outside of the Motel are facilities for local sports teams and competietive games are held there. You are only a short, walking, distance of Animali which is a smal zoo. Eindhoven is only a short drive (3km) and you are at the side of the A2 with direct access ...
