EL AGUILA NEGRA (Ramon Peon Garcia, 1954) **

Although I had long noticed this exotic Mexican double-feature at the local DVD rental shop, I was reminded of it while reading a lengthy essay mentioning masked protagonists in Mexican genre movies in one of the several Mexi-horror DVDs I watched lately.

As it turned out, this budget disc presented the films in their original Spanish language only (without the benefit of subtitles) but the plot was pretty basic and easy to follow – just another variation on the Zorro theme – and the movie just about watchable and definitely forgettable. What we do have here which (for better or worse) makes this one stand from the crowd, is the surfeit of lusty songs belted out by all and sundry during the course of the filmincluding our eponymous hero and his dancing steed!
