LAS LUCHADORAS VS. EL ROBOT
ASESINO-WRESTLING WOMEN VS. THE ROBOT ASSASSIN-1969- ln the first
Wrestling Woman series to be filmed in color female Luchador
Gaby (Regina Torne'), her wrestler friend Gemma (Malu Reyes), her cop
boyfriend Arturo (Joaquin Cordero, the monster in ORLAK, THE HELL OF
FRANKENSTEIN) and his assistant battle a mad scientist Dr. Orlac
(Carlos Agosti; INVASION OF THE VAMPIRES) bend on ruling the world by
turning everyone into "human robots". He kidnaps many
famous scientists to help in his plan dispatching a tall metallic
robot (who wears a trench coat and wide rimmed hat & sunglasses)
to get them. He also has a scarred man-beast in a cage in the
basement (what successful mad scientist doesn't?). For some reason a
nurse opens up the cage to let him out, turns her back and it kills
her. The doc then uses a whip on the monster as punishment.
Gaby has
several matches in the ring and several encounters with robot (one of
the kidnapped scientists is her relative) and she and her companions
get beat up. Two captured scientists do create a device that allows
Olac to control people (he has a real over the top maniacal laugh)
but Gaby and her group break in, destroy the robot and rescue the
scientists and Gaby's friend who was also "robotized". The
mad doc somehow escapes with the basement beast (totally forgotten
about till now). Later when it seems things have returned to normal
Olac sends his beast man to kidnap a woman who he turns into a
masked human robot wrestler. She beats every opponent (with Olac
controlling her from the stands) to get a revenge match with Gaby.
Though she/it nearly kills Gaby the murderous plot is revealed and
the vicious robo wrestler falls to her death. Olac is shot by the
police. Both bodies wind up in the wrestling
ring.
Screenwriter Alfredo Salazar and directed Rene Cordona made
many horror and wrestling related adventures.
