How It Feels

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

A lucha libre wrestling legend battles escaped lepers and criminals terrorizing a town, blending earnest action heroics with the campy surrealism of Mexican monster movies. It is exactly as strange as it sounds and commits fully to its own absurdity.
