Danger Diabolik

Filmed in 1968 and based on an Italian comic book character.

Plot: Danger Diabolik stars John Phillip Law (Barbarella) as Diabolik, a thief who has stolen over the years, a fortune from the Italian government. He has a 1960's hide out, that means its all psychedelic, he has a pimped out Jaguar car and a rather attractive lady friend...there's even a revolving bed. It's Robin Hood meets James Bond meets SuperFly...in black leather.

This film simply throws every 1960's trick and look at the film.

Fun Fact: Music by spaghetti western guru, Ennio Morricone. The film was also a major influence on Roman Coppola's (Francis's boy- brother of Sofia) film, CQ.
