Who called for an indepth look on Luchador Horror with El Santo? No one? Well too bad. This episode I interview Dr David Wilt on Mexican horror cinema and the bizzare career of the Silver Mask El Santo, a more prolific monster hunter there was not. Dr Wilt happens to do introductions on the 8-disk El Santo box-set funded by Robert Rodriguez, well worth checking out.
Below I've placed links to Dr Wilts website and Twitter (X?) along with a BFI article on where to start with Mexican Macabre cinema. I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I did.
