Who is That Masked Man?
One of the things I picked up from this past New York Comic Con was an old luchador movie, Blue Demon vs. Podor Satanico (Blue Demon vs. the Satanic Power). Just this week I got around to watching it, in fabulous black and white with a total lack of subtitles. Let it be known: I do not speak Spanish. Not a word. This very fact thrilled me. I would experience the film entirely visually, unsullied by dialog or exposition. This was to be a pure experience, in the purest sense of the word.
To fully document this momentous achievement, I decided to log my viewing (split over two nights) of the film. I do this not for myself but for the cultural enrichment of future generations… Let’s get ready to rumble!
