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.
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 your children were ever replicated by an evil genius intent on world domination.
