Satiricosissimo is a 1970 Italian comedy film directed by Mariano Laurenti starring the comic duo Franco and Ciccio. It is a parody of the 1969 Federico Fellini film Fellini Satyricon.[1][2][3]
Plot summary
Ciccio loves very much the novel
Franco and Ciccio risk being killed, and so they're saved just by writer Petronius who hire them as servants. Petronius is the best adviser to Nero, who is scared because he believes that his mother Agrippina wants to kill him. Franco and Ciccio therefore must watch over the life of the emperor, but they soon discover that the killer who wants to murder Nero is not the mother.

Reception
An Italian review of the time finds it is "a sloppy film, whose elementary comic quality relies on double entendres, vulgar jokes, references to recent political events and above all on the crude resources of the two characters in the domain of mime.''[4]
