Kiss the Girls and Make Them Die (1966)
"Kiss the Girls and Make Them Die" is a 1966 spy comedy film that parodies the popular James Bond franchise. Set against the backdrop of exotic Rio de Janeiro, the movie follows the adventures of CIA agent Kelly, played by Mike Connors. Kelly is on a mission to thwart a diabolical plot by a megalomaniacal villain, Mr. Ardonian, who plans to sterilize the world's population using an advanced satellite system.
Ardonian, portrayed by Raf Vallone, is a wealthy tycoon with a penchant for luxury and grandeur. He plans to create a new world order, where he would be the sole ruler, by rendering humanity unable to reproduce. To achieve this, he has a secret laboratory deep within the Amazon rainforest, where his scientists are working on the sterilization project.
Kelly teams up with a British secret agent, Susan Fleming, played by Dorothy Provine, who is equally determined to stop Ardonian's scheme. Together, they navigate a series of dangerous and humorous escapades, utilizing a range of high-tech gadgets and relying on their wits and charm.
