Overview

In his first film El Santo was still referred to as ‘El Enmascarado’. Rendered compliant by a scientist and his gangsters via a serum and mysterious rays, he is forced for the opening act to be a henchman for the evil forces who want to take over the world. The film has great historic value, due also to its impressive exterior shots of pre-revolutionary Cuba 1959.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A scrappy adventure serial where a masked Mexican wrestler fights mind control and world-dominating plots with equal parts earnestness and camp. The 1961 setting and brisk pacing make this feel like stepping into a time capsule of pulp entertainment.
