SANTO AND THE BLUE DEMON VS. THE MONSTERS 1970 (HANNOVER HOUSE)

I have reviewed this film about three times here, and I simply cannot get enough of it. I was just in the mood for this again last Saturday and had to watch it.

Santo, our silver masked hero and his friend Blue Demon attempt to fight a mad scientist and his bevy of monsters. Demon is captured and turned into an evil twin that tries to kill Santo along with the monsters.

A dead scientist is revived by his evil dwarf assistant and four green skinned zombies so that he can continue his experiments and bring all of earth's monsters to life. He brings Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolfman, The Mummy, and The Cyclops back to life and sends them on various missions to kill people.

As the monsters terrorize the countryside, Dracula makes two very sexy women into vampires as well and they in turn try to seduce Santo. The highlight of the entire film, as I have mentioned before is when Santo fights Dracula in the ring and all of the monsters charge into the ring making for quite a battle royal with Santo and other wrestlers fighting the evil minions.

Other highlights include the Frankenstein monster driving a getaway car after the attempted kidnapping of sexy Hedy Blue, who plays Santos love interest. This isn't subtitled or dubbed, but who the hell needs that?? One of my 10 favorite films of all time.
