expletives
Hi friends,
what would be the best way to translate the above expletive, found in a line of a film?
The translation is needed for subtitling purposes.
The context is: a young man, after talking with his mother via Skype (which is left inadvertently open) sees an unknown man making out with his mother and utters the above line.
I was thinking about rendering it as: "Ti ammazzo, bastardo!"
but I am not sure whether it renders accurately/strongly enough the flavour of the English utterance.
Your kind assistance would be very much appreciated.
Ciao, luke

Although you may have to take out the /Fottuto/ if too long.

In any case I would put the bastardo before the ti ammazzo.

or...as the original English doesn't actually use the offence 'bastard', you could just say
Fottuto! Io ti ammazzo! similar to 'I'm gonna kill you-you fucker!'
