• Note the votes for Diabolik, concentrated at both ends of the scale. Count me in the 10 contingent. Like the music of the Who, Diabolik evokes my teenage years and the swinging Euro scene of which I so much wanted to be a part. Roger Ebert called it when he said Diabolik is the film Barbarella should have been. Sure, the blue screen work is cheesy and the gun shots tinny, but this movie still drips style like few other flicks. And it moves. There's no filler. Every measly dollar (lira) they gave Mario Bava to work with is on the screen. Get Diabolik. Watch it. Watch it again. Then get it and change your vote, low-enders. Diabolik is the film of a generation, possibly the best representation of the 60s zeitgeist on celluloid.
