Description
Danger: Diabolik (1968) aka Diabolik, directed by Mario Bava, Shout! Factory remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original theatrical dual mono, three commentary tracks, and MST3k Episode 1013 riff commentary, and English subtitles.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062861/
Video encoded in two-pass 14.0 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image. Audio encoded separately with Apple AAC for the highest-quality AAC sound available. Subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : Mario Bava's only film for a major American studio is a bit of a mixed bag, an adaptation of a famously amoral Italian comics antihero which hews fairly close to the source material, for better and for worse. It turns out like if the 60s Batman TV show and the Pink Panther movies had a baby, but the kid turned out a sociopath. It's not Bava's best, but it has some good comic moments, cool late-60s visuals, drenched in light from Bava's trademark colored gels, and a score by Ennio Morricone, so it's pretty enjoyable. The hard-working cast includes John Phillip Law, Marisa Mell, Michel Piccoli, Adolfo Celi, and 60s-70s comic relief mainstay Terry-Thomas in a small role. If you don't find it entertaining enough on its own, there's always the MST3k track.
Master thief Diabolik is on the prowl, and police chief Ginko is paranoid while overseeing the transport of ten million dollars from a bank in an unnamed European country. His clever plan is to use a decoy armored truck while he and some officers transport the actual money in another car, however, Diabolik outsmarts them, steals the money, and proceeds to have sex with his girlfriend Eva Kant on top of the piles of money. When they add insult to injury by disrupting a press conference by the minister of the interior, making a laughing stock out of the government, chief Ginko is granted emergency powers to deal with the problem, and Ginko forces a local drug dealer to help him catch Diabolik. Diabolik wants to steal a famous jewel necklace for Eva's birthday, and while he succeeds, Eva is identified by the police and arrested. The drug dealer demands the stolen 10 million for Eva's release, but Diabolik outsmarts his opponents once again. The police are still on their trail, and now only the most desperate measures will be sufficient.
A pretty middle of the road transfer here, probably a telecine, which looks mostly fine, but is a bit dull and desaturated for my taste. The dual mono track sounds fine, the three commentary tracks are good if you're into Bava like I am, and the MST3k track is, as usual, very funny, at least if you like later-era MST3k.
