Not sure how or why I avoided seeing this Mexican superhero knockoff flick all these years. Being a big fan of that other Mexican Batwoman movie from 2 years earlier and having a poster of this one hanging on my walls for quite a few years now you would have thought I woulda got around to it sooner. I think the problem was that there wasn't an English-friendly version readily available. Having now seen it though it was totally worth the wait. The Batwoman here is one of the sexiest Mexican ladies I've ever seen and she's not only an ass-kicking, crime-fighting hero but also a masked lady wrestler because that's the way these movies always seem to work. The bad guys here are a mad-scientist who's killing male wrasslers and using their pineal-gland juice to create a fish-man/monster, reminiscent of THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON to liven things up, and his faithful sidekick Igor, who seems to be a tall midget of some sort.. What more could you want? Classic kitschy fun.
