The World of the Dead
Directed by Gilberto Martínez Solares
Produced by Cinematográfica Sotomayor
A campy 1970s Mexican wrestling spectacle blending lucha libre action with supernatural horror, where masked heroes battle zombies summoned by an ancient witch.
Santo and Blue Demon take on a 300-year-old witch with a nasty attitude. She raises a legion of zombies and sends them to fight Santo in his home and in the rings.
