A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

The Robot vs. the Aztec Mummy is the subject of today's "monsterdon" viewing over on Mastodon, our fediverse sibling!

  • Just start watching Sunday, Dec 8, 2024 at 9pm ET / 8PM CT, which is 2am Monday UTC
  • then follow #monsterdon over on mastodon for live commentary

How to watch:

The evil Dr. Krupp (Luis Aceves Castañeda), a mad scientist also known as "the Bat", managed to escape the snake pit into which he was thrown by Popoca the Aztec Mummy (Ángel di Stefani) in the previous film and continues his efforts to steal a valuable Aztec treasure from Popoca's tomb. Krupp builds a robot with a human head and brain in it (which is thus, technically, a cyborg), planning to use it to destroy the mummy should he return to thwart his plans. Krupp's former colleague and original finder of the mummy, Dr. Eduardo Almada (Ramón Gay), his wife Flora, and his associate Pinacate, all work to stop the mad scientist from completing his plans.

Fun fact: the Aztecs (in Mexico) did not actually perform mummification. However the Inca (in South America) did: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummy#Inca_mummies
