This October marks The Mighty Luchador’s 4th Anniversary, and we’re kicking off the celebration in the best way we know how — with lucha on the big screen! We’re teaming up with our friends at Vidiots for a special screening of Los Campeones Justicieros (The Champions of Justice).
This campy, absurd, and unstoppable classic unites five legendary luchadores against a mad scientist, his pint-sized henchmen, and a squad of brainwashed supermodels. The result? Eighty minutes of pure masked mayhem and cinematic fun.
The evening will also feature an introduction by the incredible filmmaker Jorge R. Gutierrez (@mexopolis), director and creator of The Book of Life and Maya and the Three.
This screening is just the start — we have more in store (literally!) all month long to celebrate our anniversary, so stay tuned for more events, surprises, and lucha-fueled fun.
