Audience Member We are talking Mexican mummy/ masked super hero/ science fiction/supernatural movies. And this one is nearly perfect... Berserk Mexican Mayhem-- A complete dippy hoot!! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review bill t Totally anticlimatic movie here featuring an escaped convict wanting buried treasure, but has to rely on a scientist who solely knows where the treasures are located, a professor who can decipher the hieroglyphics on a map for the exact location. But never fear! El Santo, caped, masked wrestler, is here to save the day! Or is he? He can barely fight his way out of a parking lot, let alone defeat the bad guys. Dreadful on so many levels, with an ending that's just so anti-climatic (El Santo is totally reduced to a non-character) that features, oh that's right, a mummy, you'll be scratching your head and wondering what the fuck you just saw. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I picked this up in the BCI Aztec Mummy Collection, which included 3 films. Out of the 3 films this one is the best. This is a sequel to Attack of the Aztec Mummy. To me this was more of a Comedy the a film that might scare someone, well at least now in the year 2009, but back in 1957 it might have made one spend a sleepless night or two. Early in the film we find that the police have captured the BAT aka Dr Krupp, he is question and then transferred to another prison, when his buddies help him escape. That?s when we see The Angel a masked crime fighter complete with mask and cape. He looks more like an overweight retired wrestler. (After seeing this and laughing hard I will get a few Santo Movies). The first fight scene is something that will put you on the floor laughing, from the machine guns action to the scene where they knock out or cape crusader. There is also a Mexican Kid who reminded me of the Beaver (Leave it to Beaver), Pepe who keeps the Angel advised as to whets going on. When the mummy does appear the scenes are so dark, that it was hard to tell just what was going on. All in all its an enjoyable film. I am sure mystery Science theater would have a ball with this one. 3 1/2 stars, just shy of 4 stars. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
