I couldn't believe it when I saw it on Facebook. This is epic. I can hardly wait to see if they continue the series and such.

As always, that may depend on how the sales are for the first two titles released.

I'd love to add the more fantasy-tinged films like Santo contra la Invasión de los Marcianos (Santo vs. the Martian Invaders) and Santo contra Los Mujeres Vampiros (Santo vs. the Vampire Women) to my collection; so I may have to buy at least one of these new releases to encourage K/L to release the others.

I will support these releases by purchasing them, sight unseen. My interest in Classic Mexican Cinema was piqued when I purchased the BD-R releases by VCI Entertainment. I'm sure there are tons more that have yet to be released if ever. My only knowledge beforehand was the Luis Bunuel films when he was in Mexico.

I was a latecomer to Santo. It was one night when me and a buddy were at the rental shop on a quest to find a couple of Beer and Pizza Movies for a night in. Neither of us had heard of the series until that evening - and my world has never been the same.

My eyes initially rolled right over the poster artwork until this morning. I was quite happy to see that pop up in my feed.

With K/L discs I might be on the fence for, I'll often wait until it pops up in a sale. These ones? Day one, if nothing else but to send a strong message "Hey, I want more please!"

Best way to watch 'em.
