Among the screenplays he collaborated The Whip and the Body by Mario Bava, Arizona Colt by Michele Lupo and theLamberto Bava's giallo Delirium.
In the seventies he produced and co-wrote a long series of successful commedie sexy all'italiana including Quel gran pezzo dell'Ubalda tutta nuda e tutta calda, Giovannona Long-Thigh and The School Teacher, which launched the career of Edwige Fenech, her partner at the time.
