Developing an Army of Super-Powered Amphibian Men

BEAUTIFUL REMASTERED COLOR PRINT!

director: Rene Cardona
starring: Maura Monti · Roberto Canedo · Hector Godoy · Armando Silvestre

Rene Cardone directed this film in 1968 after helming many popular Mexican "Santo" superhero movies. Despite the obvious structural plot differences, the concept here never had the opportunity to develop into a franchise due to trouble with the American Batman and Batwoman copyright holders. This would be Italian-born starlet Maura Monti’s only brush with the character (she was also featured in SANTO VS THE MARTIANS).

Here is the story of Batwoman, a female wrestler who helps the authorities stop a mad scientist bent on world domination through the creation of super strength gill-men. She and agent Mario Robles put their lives on the line against insane Dr Eric Williams and his misguided mania..

A Mexican film in Spanish with optional English subtitles; fullscreen format (4:3), uncut (80 minutes), DVD encoded for ALL REGION NTSC WORLD FORMAT.
