Danger: Diabolik follows the daring exploits of Diabolik (John Phillip Law), a masked master thief who, along with his glamorous partner Eva Kant (Marisa Mell), executes a series of high-stakes heists while evading law enforcement and rival criminals.
Set in a world of psychedelic visuals and extravagant set pieces, the story revolves around Diabolik’s audacious schemes, including stealing a fortune in cash from the government and making off with a priceless emerald necklace for Eva. His actions infuriate Inspector Ginko (Michel Piccoli), a relentless detective determined to capture him. Meanwhile, the gangster Valmont (Adolfo Celi) is also on Diabolik’s trail, hoping to eliminate him for his own benefit.
As Diabolik continues to outwit his enemies with his brilliance and high-tech gadgets, his luck begins to run out when a trap is set, leading to a dramatic climax involving a daring escape and an explosive final twist. Featuring Ennio Morricone’s iconic score and Bava’s signature visual flair, Danger: Diabolik is a cult classic that blends pop-art aesthetics with thrilling action, embodying the essence of 1960s Eurospy and comic book-inspired cinema.
