"The spies who came in from the cool") is a 1966 Eurospy comedy film, made in Technicolor and directed by Mario Bava. Serving as a sequel to two unrelated films, ''Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine'' and ''Two Mafiosi Against Goldginger'', the film stars Vincent Price, Fabian, Francesco Mulé, Laura Antonelli, and the Italian comic duo Franco and Ciccio.

World War III
