Totò Diabolicus is a 1962 Italian black comedy film directed by Steno. The film consists in a parody of Italian noir comic books (such as Diabolik, Kriminal and Satanik) and giallo,[1] and in it Totò plays six different characters.[2]

In the film, the supervillain Diabolicus murders a baron. The police suspects the baron's heirs, but the murder suspects are killed one by one by the villain.

Plot

[edit]

Baron Torrealta is mysteriously killed by a mysterious murderer, dressed in black, who call himself "Diabolicus". The police suspects that one of his relatives is guilty of murder because of the enormous legacy, but every time they are going to incarcerate someone, this one gets killed by Diabolicus.
