Guns, Gore and Cannoli 2
Guns, Gore & Cannoli 2 revives the good, old, action platform run & gun genre but this time with a bunch of humor and a bucket of blown of body parts. In this sequel to Guns, Gore & Cannoli, Vinnie Cannoli’s story continues and this time it’s personal. It’s 1944 and 15 years have passed since Vinnie survived the Thugtown Massacre. But now, some loose ends start crawling out of the past, dragging Vinnie as far as the European battlefield of World War 2. Get ready for war!
