Santo vs. Frankenstein's Daughter
Santo contra la hija de Frankenstein
Dr. Frankenstein and her assistant, Dr. Yanco, are going to bring one of their experiments to life in Santo Vs. Frankenstein's Daughter. She intends to use a monster named Ursus to do her evil bidding. Using a youth serum to retain their vitality, the doctors set their sights upon none other than El Santo. They need his super human blood to regenerate a stronger youth serum. They kidnap Santo's goddaughter, Norma and lure him into Dr. Frankenstein's lab where he is captured and enslaved. Will Santo make it out alive?
Why it matters
A campy cult mash-up that blends lucha libre spectacle with mad scientist monster madness — a must-see for fans of wild genre crossovers and ’70s Mexican horror kitsch.

- DIY practical effects and lurid set design capture an era when horror embraced unhinged creativity over polish.
- Perfect for fans of regional horror and campy creature features that lean into their own absurdity.
- The bizarre plot and earnest performances make it an irresistible midnight movie curiosity, even if it’s far from seamless storytelling.
