Santo contra los Zombies (also known as Santo vs. the Zombies) is a 1961 Mexican superhero film directed by Benito Alazraki. It depicts the popular character El Santo in a pulp-style film.
After the police are unable to stop a crime wave by zombies, they turn to Santo for help.
This was one of the earliest Santo films and the first to be distributed in the US. [1]
Writing in The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle said, "The adventure movie with its comic-book plot, hero, and villain is fun to watch in an MST-3K spirit". [2]
