    Arrriva Dorellik (Steno, 1967)

    Arrriva Dorellik (Steno, 1967)

    Take one of Italy's most popular entertainers, stick him in a moth-eaten supervillain costume, then have him come face to face with a buffonish Terry-Thomas and you have Arrriva Dorellik, a star vehicle for singer, actor and all-round charisma machine Johnny Dorelli. But given this is an Italian comedy, will Rod and Adrian be able to agree on whether this is one to enjoy or avoid like the plague? Tune in to find out. In this episode Adrian also gets very easily distracted by Dorelli's Sanremo win of 1959 which leads to him going on about the Eurovision Song Contest at length.
    Johnny Dorelli was still singing this film's theme Arriva la bomba well into the 1970s, and can be seen making an appearance on Italian television here.
    The fumetti season is well underway! If you want to do some background reading on the most popular Italian comics of the sixties, there's a great resource here on Comic Vine.
    We would love to hear from you if you have any favourite Italian comic or masked hero/ villain-based films, or if have ever found yourself stuck in your car, trapped between two palm trees.

    The Three Fantastic Supermen (I fantastici 3 $upermen, Gianfranco Parolini, 1967)

    The Three Fantastic Supermen (I fantastici 3 $upermen, Gianfranco Parolini, 1967)

    What's better than one Superman? That's right, it's three Supermen! Plus Rod and Adrian makes five. Strap on your suction cups, grab your mini-capes and join them in them in this super-exciting, very silly adventure film that combines elements of the Peplum and the Eurospy with Batman and The Green Hornet. The Three Fantastic Supermen is nothing if not ambitious.

    Argoman the Fantastic Superman (Sergio Grieco, 1967)

    Argoman the Fantastic Superman (Sergio Grieco, 1967)

    Argoman or Psychoman? That's the question posed in this episode as we take a look at the pop art-infused crazy world of Sir Reginald Hoover, noted criminologist, playboy and masked criminal. Other questions raised by this film include "Is ten minutes of pleasure worth losing your powers for six hours?" and "Can you really take over the world by being able to make metal bendy?"

    Superargo vs Diabolicus (1966) & Superargo and the Faceless Giants (1968)

    Superargo vs Diabolicus (1966) & Superargo and the Faceless Giants (1968)

    In this episode Rod & Adrian grab their bulletproof spandex and head for the wrestling ring for a tag team bout with Superargo! Based on his previous form, it's not likely to end well for our two middle-aged podcasters. Yes, Superargo is here, in a double-bill featuring maniacal mad men, secret underground lairs, killer robots, deadly swamps, femme fatales and extremely valuable cocktail olives!
