Isabella, Duchess of the Devils (Bruno Corbucci, 1969)

"En garde!" In this episode we jump back in time to seventeenth century France, where dastardly deeds are afoot and the Duchess Isabella is forced to take revenge against the evil Baron Von Nutter for the murder of her entire family and the theft of her family state. And in this film, revenge is a dish best served sexy.

We are now coming towards the end of our fumetti season. 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 you have ever thwarted an assassination attempt whilst taking a bath.
