Rather slow but nonetheless entertaining movie that apparently was masked wrestler Santo’s first starring vehicle, Santo contra los zombies has our hero, as so often, battling a mad scientist and his minions — in this case zombies energized and controlled by electronic belts. There’s plenty of battles both in the ring and out, a rather confusing series of plots by the mad scientist, and odd fights in which guns fail to stop the zombies but well-delivered wrestling moves can defeat them, at least temporarily. A good introduction to the character.

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK, but not great.

Movie 106 for 2021.
