Strange Psychokinetic Strategy

Synopsis:
The very first movie was actually a live-action film. It is a cross between the over-the-top physical comedy from the manga and the campiness of the Adam West/Burt Ward Batman TV show. It does not have much of a plot and serves only to introduce all of the characters, save for Goemon, to each other.

Secret of Mamo

Synopsis:
Transylvania... Lupin has been captured and hanged to death; the coroner's report confirms that down to the DNA level this was the real Lupin the Third. However, Zenigata refuses to believe Lupin is dead and drives to a castle to view the body. He then proceeds to drive a stake through the heart of Lupin's corpse. The corpse explodes, and Zenigata comes face to face with... Lupin?!

Castle of Cagliostro

Lupin's search for the source of the legendary counterfeit "Goat Money" leads him to the small country of Cagliostro.

Lupin naturally rushes to the aid of the pretty girl and saves her from a nasty fall over a cliff.

Legend of the Gold of Babylon

Synopsis:
Several stone tablets have been unearthed in New York City and tell the tale of an ancient treasure. Thousands of years ago, a god demanded that all of the gold in Babylon be collected so it could be hidden.

Farewell to Nostradamus

Can Lupin rescue Julia, find a way into the vault, and discover the connection between the cult and the kidnapping? And what about his diamond?!
