THE PLOT:

Dr. Eduardo Almada tells comrades of the amazing tale about how in an experiment to prove that hypnosis can bring out the events of pasts lives he discovers an ancient Aztec tomb in which a breast plate and a bracelet holds the key to a fantastic Aztec treasure.

But the tomb is gaurded by Popoca, the Mummy. He also tells of a criminal that calls himself the Bat and how he captured him and was forcing him to translate the again stolen Breastplate and again Popoca arrived. But this time to save the day.

Now Doctor Krupp and his goon Boris uses Flor's power to fin Popoca and the breastplate, but this time he has finished his greatest creation, a remote control robot. With the center a corpse he stole. Who will win this clash of the titans, the Mummy or the Machine?

ZEDD'S OPINION:

For an investment of around four bucks US, this is a pretty good movie. The Aztec Mummy is way cool and dubbing and the sound is perfect. My only complaint is story, it's short. Too short at around sixty-five minutes, it's too short. Considering over twenty minutes is flash backs from the first two movies. I think they could have done more with the plot and had more then one fight between the Robot and The Aztec Mummy.
I GIVE IT...7 STARS

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

Zedd is way off base this time. This is only a fair Mexican Import. Grant you for four bucks I shouldn't be complaining, well I am. I am complaining. I am camplaing about what Zedd complained about plus I am adding the Robot suit and the lack of knee joints, this guy was probably falling down all the time, what kind of Doctor would put a corpse inside a robot body and not include knee joints? That's why I'm giving it...
4 STARS

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ AZTEC MUMMY (We both loved the Aztec Mummy looked, a great cool monster suit)
+ DUBBING (Zeddd thought the English cast did a great job of dubbing it)
+ SOUND (The sound is crystal clear)
+ CAST (The cast did a great job, espically the one that played Dr. Krupp)

AND....

+ BUDGET PRICE (At around four bucks US. You can either buy a meal deal at Burger King or you can invest in a pretty good horror flick)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- TOO SHORT (At a mere 65 minites long, it's way too short.)

- FLASHBACKS (Considering how short it is, do we really need all the flashbacks?)

AND FIANLLY....

- ROBOT (The fact the robot didn't have knee joints really bugged the crap out of Voltron)
