René Cardona

Wrestlers, mad doctors, and human-fish hybrids abound in The Bat Woman (La mujer murcielago), a colourful showcase for the talents of Italian Mexican sex symbol Maura Monti. When Acapulco's wrestlers start being murdered and their pineal glands mysteriously extracted, the wealthy luchadora Gloria (Monti) adopts her crime-fighting persona of the Bat Woman. Donning her disguise of shiny blue mask, cape, and micro-bikini, she teams up with agent Mario (Hector Godoy) to foil the evil Dr Williams (Roberto Canedo) in his dastardly plan to create an army of amphibious 'fish-men'. Produced by Guillermo Calderon (Santo vs. the Riders of Terror) and directed by Rene Cardona (The Panther Women), The Bat Woman is an eye-popping, high-camp blend of lucha libre and superhero action.<br/><br/>INDICATOR LIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY SPECIAL FEATURES <br/><br/>- 4K restoration from the original negative<br/><br/>- Limited edition exclusive 80-page book with a new essay by Dolores Tierney, archival essays by Doyle Greene and Andrew Coe, archival interviews with Maura Monti, and full film credits <br/><br/>- Original Spanish mono audio <br/><br/>- Audio commentary with film historian and Mexican cinema specialist David Wilt (2024)<br/><br/>- Adventures in Mexicolour (2024): journalist, writer and indie editor of Belcebú, and formerly DC Comics, Mauricio Matamoros Durán examines the position of The Bat Woman within the Mexican and international pop and comic-book culture of the time<br/><br/>- Fantastique Creatures (2024): José Luis Ortega Torres, film critic, teacher, and author of the book Mostrología del cine mexicano, explores the representation of monsters in early Mexican genre cinema<br/><br/>- Original theatrical trailer <br/><br/>- Image gallery: promotional and publicity material<br/><br/>- New and improved English translation subtitles <br/><br/>- Premiere on Blu-ray<br/><br/>- Limited edition of 8,000 individually numbered units for the UK and US
