Trivia
Maura Monti could only wear the costume for a short while, as she said she kept getting a wedgie in the front and the back. Attempts to re-size the costume were unsuccessful.

Goofs
In his first scene, Mario sits at the same table with the Inspector. In the next, closer shot, Mario's chair is closer to the Inspector than it had just been.

Quotes
Dr. Eric Williams: Perfect... Perfect! Prepare, Igor! Prepare! You are about to witness the greatest thing of the century! From the waters of the sea more than four hundred million years ago, emanated the beginning of the human race when arose to life the first vertebrate, the fish. From that basis we will do the regression to the dawn of evolution... and we will create in image and likeness of our primary ancestors... the human amphibian creature!

Na na na na na na na na BATWOMAN! rimshot.

This is one strange little movie.Happened to pick up an english subtitled version of this one.It is known as Batwoman and was released during the Batman craze.Somehow DC comics didn't sue for the use of the name. Maybe because it was never really released in the USA.

Anyway a mad scientist is wanting to create a race of super gill men.He uses the glands of wrestlers because they are "perfect".I don't write them I just watch them.Wrestlers are winding up dead all over Acapulco so the call goes out for that mysterious crime fighter BATWOMAN!

She has the Batman cape, cowl and boots. Only Batman doesn't wear a bikini.I kept waiting for her to pop out of it during all of the violent fight scenes.No such luck guys.

The doctor succeeds in creating a gill man. Batwoman tosses acid in the scientist's face.He wants revenge and wants to make her into a gill woman.Will he accomplish the dastardly deed?Tune in tomorrow!Same bat time, same bat channel.

This is an average movie.Best thing to do is just turn your brain off, enjoy the local Acapulco scenery and while away 90 minutes watching this.
