Mexican spy movies from the sixties are generally pretty weird, and Cazadores de Espias just may be the weirdest of them all. This 1969 effort, which stars the fabulous Maura Monti, sets its action in a combination go-go-club/wrestling arena, a situation that provides for lots of masked luchadores, shimmying go-go girls, ridiculously uniformed super-villains, spy hijinks and musical numbers by Mexican pop acts of the period.

PLEASE NOTE: I do not sell, trade, upload or otherwise provide copies of the films that I review on this site, so please don’t ask.
Please, no questions about where to download films or subtitle files. If you are asking about the availability of a reviewed film on DVD, please make sure that you have first conducted a simple search of the film’s title on Google, eBay, and Amazon. That usually works for me.
Everyone else, BRING IT ON!
