GHOST TOWN (aka: El Pueblo Fantasma)
Dir. Alfredo B. Crevenna, 1965
80 min, Mexico
In Spanish w/ English subtitles
The Rio Kid bursts onto the screen promising to lay waste to anyone claiming to be a faster gunslinger than he! Little do the townsfolk know that the reason The Rio Kid is so quick with the pistolero is because he's been alive for 200 years and drinks the blood of his victims. Enter El Texano (clearing his family name) and his partner Don Nestor (fresh out of prison) - both vowing revenge!
More black and white genre blending from mid-60's Mexico. While this film features more singing than the others in our series it also has one of the more sympathetic anti-hero's of the group. While The Rio Kid is in fact a literal monster he also comes off as somewhat of a folk hero when he stops the assault of a young woman. In the end though, the duo save the town but cannot save the subtitles - that one's on us.

This April Spectacle is pleased to present a collection of throwbacks on horseback from down Mexico way. Four supernatural westerns covering everything from witches to werewolves, from the devil to Dracula. It may still be chilly in NYC but here at the Goth Bodega - it's Spring Break.
