I hadn’t seen a Santo movie in quite a while, and this hit the spot. Maybe there is a 10% score inflation here for that
Beautiful car in this one. Internet movie car database says 1965 Pontiac Bonneville.
This one featured a guest sidekick, José "Mantequilla" Nápoles, who was very endearing. He did something that Santo never deigns to do: try to emote. His only screen appearance.
