The evil Count Cagliostro (Tito Novaro), a 500 yr. Old Warlock, and monomaniacal professor Raymond conspire to resurrect the famous mummies of Guanajuato in order to extract Hernium, a preternatural, highly volatile element! Working from their secret, heavily guarded subterranean base they begin their sinister subterfuge, threatening the total destruction of the world if their despotic demands aren't met in full! With the entire civilisation held precariously in the balance, mankind's only hope of salvation is in the heroic triumvirate of muscular masked mancake, Mil máscaras, the no less hypertrophic, Blue Angel and sparky comrade, El Rayo de Jalisco! El Robo de las Momias de Guanajuato (1972) is an action-packed, wonderfully entertaining, divinely ludicrous Luche Libre romp that provides B-Movie fans with a garish generosity of crusty zombie mayhem! Headier highlights include the macabre-looking Mummies grisly make-up, Cagliostro's zesty Kung Fu Dwarves, Rafael Carrion's groovy score, the striking Guatemalan locations, and, of course, the lusty Luchador's triumphant battle over the eerie electro-brained zombies!
