Overview:

Masked Mexican wrestler and superhero Santo plays private investigator, called in by government officials to investigate the mysterious vandalism of a high profile painting. With the help of his two counterparts, he uncovers the truth behind an art collector/chemist who may be murdering female models.

Description

Santo, famous masked wrestler and international secret agent, is asked to investigate the crime, since he’s scheduled to wrestle in Spain anyway. He’s teamed up with Paul, another Interpol agent, who proves his worth when the two men are attacked by assassins in Santo’s hotel room. After an excellent brawl, Santo and Paul triumph. They investigate Dr. Mann, but can prove nothing, although one of Mann’s live-in models tells Paul that each time a model finishes her work, she disappears and is never heard from again.

Interpol agent Susan is sent to Mann’s castle, substituting for a real model. However, Susan and Ester are caught while snooping around Mann’s laboratory, and they are tossed into the dungeon with the other captives. Santo and Paul break into the castle and, eluding the various death traps, free the models. Sara, Mann’s assistant, falls into an acid bath used to dispose of dead bodies; Mann is captured. Santo pursues Peter, Mann’s chief associate. Peter tries to escape by motorboat, but Santo–dangling underneath a helicopter on a rope ladder–leaps into the boat. They fight, and Santo leaps overboard just before the craft smashes into the shore and explodes.
