A masked avenger with a razor-sharp whip and unshakable resolve, El Látigo wages war against supernatural forces and evil men alike in this pulpy, action-packed Mexican cult trilogy. Inspired by the legend of Zorro but steeped in gothic horror and grindhouse flair, the series is a thrilling blend of swashbuckling action, spooky atmosphere, and old-school lucha libre energy.
In the ruins of Tikal, a struggle breaks out for possession of the priceless treasure of religious people who keep their traditions. Violence, crime and assaults that nobody can stop. Only "The Whip", the legendary defender of the Indians, dares to confront the thugs.
Zorro-type horseman with occult powers faces off against all metaphysical evils.
Third and final film in the Zorro-like series, following El Latigo / "The Whip" (1978) and El látigo contra Satanás / "The Whip vs. Satan" (1979).
