German Robles stars as a scientist who profanes the tomb of an ancient Aztec general and then has to pay the price.
The head of the general comes to life and his Aztec warrior protector is sent out to get revenge in the form of cutting out the hearts of those involved in opening the tomb.
Abel Salazar is a police inspector called in to investigate. The scientists daughter is possessed by the spirit of an Aztec princess and she helps with the killings.
Things get really weird and finally good triumphs over evil and both the head and its warrior ore destroyed. This is not too bad of a film brought to USA audiences by K. Gordon Murray, but it is the hardest one to see. Why? I don't know.
It's always good to see Robles and Salazar in movies together sine they are the kings of Mexican horror cinema. The film contains some good creepy moments and it reminds me of the American film entitled "The Thing That Couldn't Die".
If you get a chance to see this rare film, I suggest you do. It's well worth the time, at least in my opinion.
