    Poor man's Bond!
    The poster and the pictures of the movie look very appetizing, like a real valuable Bond. But the reality is different. Poor Folco Lulli was swallowed by the lava because he tried to imitate Gert Fröbe in "Goldfinger". The whole movie fails because it tries to copy another Bond, "You Only Live Twice". I'm convinced that the producers Giuseppe De Blasio (as Joseph de Blasio), Anacleto Fontini (as Cleto Fontini) and Alfonso Balcázar, they did not had the money of Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, therefore, their effort is worthwhile, the film is not really bad. The sets are OK, the music is OK, the actors' play leaves something to be desired.
