BAMcinématek 2017
series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Mario Bava | 1968
With John Phillip Law, Marisa Mell, Michel Piccoli
“Famed giallo filmmaker Mario Bava directs this psychedelic, Morricone scored caper, based on an Italian comic book series. What more could you ask for?!”
—EDGAR WRIGHT
Pulp avant-gardist Mario Bava transforms his comic strip source material into a high trash pop masterpiece. Outré sets, skin-tight costumes, and lunatic plotting abound as master criminal Diabolik (Law) pulls brazen mega-heists, outwits Police Inspector Ginco (Piccoli), and gets frisky with his mod lady love (Mell). It’s a supremely stylish live action cartoon with a loungy-psychedelic Ennio Morricone score to boot.
