- 𝖆𝖒𝖆𝖓𝖉𝖆 ☆ — ★★
“Esta película es una locura de esas que creo que uno tiene que ver. Hay de todo: Viajes en el tiempo, brujas, aztecas(?), luchadores, aztecas luchadores… jaja.” - SnarlingApollo — ★★½
“Mil Mascaras and friends find themselves trapped in a witch’s dimension after luchador himbo Tinieblas buys a cursed painting for his apartment. Business as usual.” - Sarah Jane 🔪 — ★★½
“I love Lorena Velázquez. This movie is both the best and also not very good. Wrestlers, weird paintings, Aztecs, time travel…who could ask for anything more?” - Lobo Tommy — ★★★★½
“There’s entertainment, then there’s extra entertaining entertainment, and then there’s vintage Mexican genre film. Mind-boggling combination of wrestling (loads of it), time travel, sword fights, witchcraft, Aztec mummy etc. Extra points for the cackling narrator-organist-zombie.” - YourUncleBingo — ★★★½
“la funa a Tinieblas: la película”
