BLU-RAY DEBUT
These three newly restored rarities, all by the same director, showcase different ways the Mexican wrestling film could be hybridised with other genres.
The Panther Women
foregrounds gothic horror, as female Satanists vow revenge on descendants of the druid who killed their cult’s warlock founder. A Santo-alike called Angel helps out, but is in the mix too, as the cultists sprout comical fangs and claws – and spy-fi, via Angel’s radio-watch!
