Il a embrassé différents genres, du péplum au western spaghetti. Il est connu pour ses films considérés comme de série B, ce qui lui a valu le surnom de « Ed Wood italien » et le titre de « pire réalisateur italien ». Cependant, Boccia était doué d'une remarquable créativité et était un maître dans la résolution de situations complexes, souvent en raison de la faiblesse du budget dont il disposait.
