Listed below are films credited to Bruno Mattei known to feature footage from other (often better-known) films. The films are presented in reverse chronological order. Only films that directly borrow footage are featured. Had I aimed to feature all Bruno Mattei films that lift either music, dialogue/plot elements or imitate artwork from other films, I would have done better to simply paste the Roman filmmaker’s entire filmography . This list is by no means comprehensive
