Totò Diabolicus is a 1962 Italian black comedy film directed by Steno, in which Totò plays six different characters.[1] It is a parody of the giallo genre, as well as of the noir comic book series Diabolik, which debuted the same year.[2]

Plot

Baron Torrealta is murdered by a mysterious assassin known as "Diabolicus". Due to the sizable inheritance, the police suspects the baron's heirs. The mystery deepens, however, as the suspects become targets themselves.
