Description
Women wrestlers, monsters, and mad doctors; in other words, two perfect motion pictures! Though he has already created a half man-half ape named Gomar, a mad doctor's experiments on female brain transplants have been failures. Why? "The brains come from totally uneducated women!" But the Doctor of Doom quickly zeroes in on "a stronger type of woman" in the form of gorgeous wrestling pals Gloria Venus and Golden Rubi, sending Gomar and his henchmen to abduct them. After Gloria throws acid in his face, the doc, disfigured and crazier than ever, puts Gomar's gorilla brain into the body of one of Gloria's galpals to create "Vendetta," a Superhuman Wrestling Woman whose goal is to kill Gloria in the ring! Plus, Gloria Venus (now renamed Loretta) and Golden Rubi are back to crack the heads of an Asian gang led by a Fu Manchu-like character known as "The Black Dragon," who's killing off archaeologists in hops of discovering the Treasure of the Aztecs. Entering a tomb and discovering the living remains of a mummified witch doctor who can also change himself into a spider and bat, it time for the main event: The Wrestling Women vs. the Aztec Mummy!

 BETTER THAN THE ROBOT January 14, 2007

With this double feature we do not get eggroll. We get the first movie, DOCTOR OF DOOM, which we can skip because we only bought the DVD to watch the other movie, so intrigued were we by the title. WRESTLING WOMEN VS THE AZTEC MUMMY is indeed better that THE ROBOT VS THE AZTEC MUMMY, which came from the same source, K. Gordon Murray dumpster diving behind the Mexican cinema lots again. I won't get into LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD AND THE MONSTERS but if you buy this DVD you can see the trailer from it. Only seeing is believing.
WRESTLING WOMEN actually has a few yucks going for it, and if you are into bad movies, well, you could do worse.
 Vlad & Creighton vs. The Aztec Mummy! November 12, 2003
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
Just watched this fantastic DVD. Fans of Something Weird or fans of insane movies in general will love it! But don't just buy this disk for the movies. The EXTRAS are the best part. Especially Ghoul A Go Go. This public access tv show out of Long Island is the coolest! Any fan of the whole Horror Host scene must see for him/herself Vlad (the coolest vampire cat on the tube) and Creighton (the baddest/cuddliest hunchback you've ever seen) keep TV creepy with the most whacked-out kids dance show ever. So, put on your Go Go boots and get ready to twist... or boogaloo... or swim.... or....
Ghoul A Go Go !!! October 30, 2003

If you're a fan of horror hosts and demented daytime kid's TV shows check out the extras on this product. Bonus episodes of the great underground program, "Ghoul-A-Go-Go" featuring the creepy Vlad and Creighton. Great stuff. My daughter absolutely loves Creighton, a king-size hunchback mute with an obsession for classic 60s go-go dancing and who happens to horde a collection of bizarre film footage. Performances by contemporary retro-garage rock bands are a treat, too. Don't overlook this!

The first of what is promised to be a release of Mexican horror films purchased from Mexico by exploitation meister K. Gordon Murray in the early Sixties. Lots of related TV spots/trailers, with LOTS!!! OF!!! ECHO!!! ON!!! THE!!!! ANNOUNCER'S!!! VOICE!!!! Good reading on the included eight page booklet talking about Murray's career. Wacky gorillas! Mad scientists! Masked wrestlers! Bad Twist music! These have got it all. But I can't wait for my two favorites, once glimpsed in a drunken state at 3:00 a.m. on a New Jersey UHF station: The Brainiac and the truly creepy Curse of The Doll People! Cursed dolls come to life and start stabbing people to death! THis is 30 years before "Chucky", remember!
