Enzo G. Castellari (born 1938) is an Italian director who got his start with spaghetti westerns such as A Few Dollars for Django.
Several of the movies in his filmography were made to cash in on the success of recent blockbusters. In the case of The Last Shark, Universal Studios accused it of being a plagiarism of Jaws and took legal action. The courts agreed and the film's North American release was blocked.
Many of his films were imported to the United States by Film Ventures International.
