Would love to see more Mario Bava flicks covered. One of my favourite directors.

Luca

He's such a great actor, it's pity they didn't let him act in that one

Claudia

The only reason I know about the 2021 one is because Luca Marinelli is in it

noxamillion

Holy shit! You made me realize the music video to the remix uses footage of this movie.

Harrison Fuller

Choosing to believe that the depiction of Danger Diabolik Grant Morrison based Fantomex on was this one due to them astral projecting to the future. Edit: Alright apparently y’all have not heard of Fantomex, AKA Danger Diabolic if he was literally grown in a Test Tube in a lab and pretended to be French.

Amy

it is wild to be knowing who is being referred to in one of the vagueposts on the ep, beautiful horrors

Luca

Nice! I'll give it a try!

Damien Tonkin

Apparently a third one came out last year

This may be late to the party, considering the season is coming to a close, but: y’all should do North by Northwest! It’s a genuinely fun (and funny) spy movie of a thoroughly American persuasion, featuring noted American blonde Eva Marie Saint.

it's interesting that Abbie compares Terry-Thomas' vibe to king john in robin hood b/c he was in that film but as the snake (tooth lisp replaced by tongue lisp), king john was played by Peter Ustinov!

Clare

Abi, I know your co-hosts did not react but for the record I do think they should cast you in a remake of Barberella

Cam

I did enjoy the Longbenton shoutout as someone who has worked with the Revenue in Newcastle

Luca

So glad you got to see this one, it's a favorite of mine. If you want more Diabolik movies they recently made two: 2021's Diabolik and 2022'd Diabolik: Ginko Attacks! They're not as good imo, but Eva Kant is played by 10/10 smokeshow Miriam Leone.

Andrew Dunn

Fashionable and ostentatious in a way that pushes the limits. Like really bold, and really pulling it off. Sort of drag language. "Serving cunt" is when a drag queen is flawlessly pulling off whatever she's trying to.

NaylandBlake

If you loved this, I would suggest you do 1968's Black Lizard, a master criminal film directed by Kinji Fukasaku that is just as stylized and nuts. Mishima has a cameo in it!

Doug King

American here, when Abi describes the face mask as "cunty" what is she saying. Us Yanks would that as an adverb to describe behavior. Your help is much appreciated.

Doug King

Couple of things. 1. I love when Abi gets really excited and her inner Geordie makes an appearance. 2. I too need sneaking outfits.

Winson Paine

Three notes; one he threw a bunch of bags onto the boat before he laughed and jumped over, I think that was the money. Second the fucking on the money scene had a remix of DEEP DEEP DOWN on it that sounded like the stuff Morricone did for The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly and I could not stop laughing. Third for those interested this is free streaming on Pluto for those who are, like me, too lazy to pirate it

ZaitsevFred

Now understanding why Italians love Lupin so much

Simon Bitdiddle

The ladies were sleeping on the opening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Di8SMP2CMvo "DEEP DEEP DOWN"

Alex Anderson

Abi’s emphasis on the remake implies a particular interest in appearing in Barbarella 2

Andrew Dunn

November, you can't keep mentioning Day of the Jackal when I know the whole next season isn't assassination themed and therefore won't be covered. I'm rabid.

juliette necro

Oh shit, this is a Bava?? I warched Black Sunday recently and that movie whips ass Also, once again: The Quick and the Dead (1995)

Zipzapzop

Does this mean hope for a Barbarella episode

bossbear the rock

Getting "Gibby'ed" is such a fucking invocative pharse when it come to eating shit stomach first , thanks Devon for putting that on my verbal radar .

The Beastie Boys edit themselves into this movie for the Body Movin' music video

So glad you guys liked it. It's one of my favourite movies, it's so cool. Really like Bava as a director. Shame this is his only studio production. He got it made on time and under budget but it didn't make much money so ho hum. Also, the score was by Ennio Morricone, fun fact.

Simon Bitdiddle

I mean, if there's a chance we could get Secret Agent Super Dragon as well, that'd be amazing.

Jason Young

I wish there was like Spotify for movies, so I could watch all of eurospy season. This movie sounds amazing, and the few of these films I've seen are so cool

John Leavitt

I’m doing the bad thing where I comment before listening to the episode but there’s a blink and you miss it reference to this movie in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

Wait, there's a KJB thread in the WTYP discord?

ScienceDaddy

MST3K did 'Danger: Diabolik' as the riffed movie in the very final episode of the show's original run (S10E13). It's on YouTube! Don't miss it! https://youtu.be/AYo2vpzfvj8?si=oKj-UtnqIz4-QJlV

Don Kasak

The Italian contributions to the Eurospy genre are a class unto themselves. I also would highly recommend “Danger!! Death Ray” for having a spy who could have been Val Kilmer’s father, and also for its crazy soundtrack (though nowhere near as crazy-go-nuts as the Diabolik soundtrack).

Wait there's a WTYP discord?

RIP Officer DeeDee Megadoodoo

Let this be a lesson that sometimes the hogs are right. The WTYP discord's KJB thread has been pounding the table, demanding this because it is genuinely good and genuinely silly. These qualities made for a very successful MST3k episode as well.
