    With a movie title like that, how could I pass it up? By conventional standards this movie is horrible. By certain camp standards, it can be a lot of fun watching with friends. It has all of the right ingredients; a mad scientist named Dr. Krupp a.k.a. The Bat, a mummy looking ...( read more)for lost love, a damsel in distress, and a hero with a "Just For Men" hair-do. Most of the film is told in a series of flashbacks, which really doesn't matter since not much is happening on the screen at any given time. It's obvious the filmmakers tried to reach the feature-length running time by stretching out dialogue and other parts. The robot that Dr. Krupp creates is one of the most ludicrous screen creations I have ever seen. The robot legs (or robot pants) would seem to be the cheapest looking inventions ever, until the film features close-ups of the actual robot itself. Just when one thinks it can't get any better, there's the actual fight between the mummy "Popoca" and the robot . Too bad that most of the final thirty minutes of the film is spent with The Bat talking about how he will finally defeat the mummy and bragging about the robot he has made.

    Overall, the Aztec Mummy trilogy (Curse of the Aztec Mummy, Attack of the Aztec Mummy and Robot vs. Aztec Mummy) are disappointing relics of Mexican cinema, but can still be enjoyable in a juvenile, brainless way. What these films lack in technical mastery, they make up for in cheap 1950s pop culture zeal ideal for late night viewing.

    Is this a good movie? No.

    Did I enjoy it? Definitely.

    This is a Mexican Horror Flix, my copy was from Alpha Video, the english version, after hearing all the hype I was dissapointed. But I guess it would have made a great Drive in Movie back in the day. Its in my Collection only because it was a $1.49 from oldeies dot com.

    Two seemingly unrelated plots collide for no tangible reason.

    For fans of campy horror movies this one is a real jewel. The title alone tells it all.
