CHICANONAUTICA FINDS LUCADORES, AND MORE, IN THE LIBRARY

Over at La Bloga, my latest Chicanonautica takes a look at the library, and finds Carlos Fuentes, Luis Buñuel, Blue Demon, Santo, Mil Máscaras, and other luchadores. ¡Viva la bibloteca!

Our extras for this are videos from other lucha libre movies that I found at the library:

Santo vs. La Invasion de los Marcianos pits the man in the silver mask against blond Martians with teleportation belts, shows NASA footage, and steals music from Forbidden Planet.



Los Championes Justicieros has Blue Demon and an all-star cast of luchadores fighting a mad scientist, and a horde of super-midgets, with a wild & crazy jazz soundtrack.




And here's a wonderful tribute to Santo:
