Fantômas Movies: Release Order
The legendary master criminal Fantômas has captivated audiences since the early days of cinema, beginning with Louis Feuillade's groundbreaking 1913 silent serial. However, this colorful 1960s trilogy starring Jean Marais as the enigmatic villain and Louis de Funès as the perpetually frustrated Commissioner Juve represents the most beloved and accessible film adaptation of the character.
The trilogy transforms Fantômas from his darker literary origins into a charming, comedic adventure series. Each film escalates the cat-and-mouse game between the master of disguise and his dogged pursuer, moving from Paris to the French Riviera and finally to Scotland as Fantômas's schemes grow increasingly elaborate and outrageous.
