The sociopathic schemes of Gallic pulp fiction’s malicious master of disguise received a lighter treatment in these Bondesque actioners that starred Jean Marais as both Fantômas and his implacable nemesis, journalist Jerome Fandor; Louis de Funès as Surete inspector Juve; and Mylène Demongeot as Fandor’s lady Hélène. In "Fantômas" (1964), the arch-villain repays Fandor’s meddling by kidnapping him and framing him for heinous deeds. "Fantômas Unchained" (1964) finds Fantômas abducting prominent scientists to build him a world-beating arsenal. Lastly, it’s "Fantômas vs. Scotland Yard" (1967), as the mastermind decides it’s time to tax the U.K.’s rich--and kill them if they reject his extortion. 5 1/3 hrs. on 2 discs. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailers. Dubbed in English.
