The Mexican Batwoman

a fascinating and practically seamless experiment in film genre, splicing Sixties Batmania to the Masked Mexican film... Batwoman stars Maura Monti, the tall gorgeous actress of Italian descent who featured in a phenomenal thirty five films in her four year film career before she disappeared. Usually playing in tandem with other actresses, or second-billed to wrestling superstars Santo and Blue Demon, her chance to strut her costumed stuff came in 1967 with the lead role in La Mujer Murcielago, or The Mexican Batwoman.
