VISA 110 - 3rd Proyect [Tintorera]

Guanajuato is a Mexican town famous for the natural mummification that happens to those buried in its cemetery, and the macabre exhibition of the mummified corpses of the "Guanajuato Mummy Museum". Sources of legends since its discovery, the Guanajuato Mummies were of course a natural source for a horror film, and by the early 70s, movies starring wrestlers became a very popular sub genre in the troubled Mexican film industry, as the mystique and charm of the well-known athletes suited perfectly a wide range of stories on almost every film genre possible, including of course, horror. Among the many wrestlers that became actors, Santo, Blue Demon and Mil Máscaras are probably the best and most famous of them, and "Las Momias De Guanajuato" was the first movie that gathered the three for a horror adventure.
