History Film / SantoYBlueDemonContraDraculaYElHombreLobo

* GlamorousSingleMother: Laura Cristaldi.

ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Wrestling/ElSanto and his MaskedLuchador pal Blue Demon do, indeed, fight against {{Dracula}}, a {{Werewolf}} named Rufus Rex, and their legions of vampire and werewolf followers in this 1972 Mexican film.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: A particularly bad example. At the end of the film, the luchador heroes and Santo's girlfriend Lina discuss what to tell Rosita about her horrifying ordeal when she wakes up in the morning. They decide to tell her it was just a bad dream. Which, yeah, that'll work... at least until she wonders where her mother is, and they have to tell her that she had been transformed into one of the living dead, and (the film implies but does not directly state) sent to her eternal rest after the destruction of the two eponymous monsters.

** Another scene is described in which Santo is ambushed by three werewolves, but kills two with the Dagger of Boidros (one escaping to tell the tale). Sounds like it would have been a pretty exciting fight, but we see none of it! This was possibly left off screen to avoid a FightSceneFailure [[invoked]]. ''Lucha'' films tended to use luchadors as stunt actors, not trained movie stuntmen, so there may not have been anyone around who knew how to stage a convincing knife fight.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: As is fairly typical of Mexican films of the era, not all ''that'' different. This Dracula hews pretty close to the typical mid-20th century cinematic portrayals, save for the importance of the Dagger of Boidros.

* SycophanticServant: Eric the hunchback is the Renfield to Dracula in this movie. Though he plays the usual role of a loyal servant who can move around and do things that a vampire can't, there's an interesting twist to this: [[spoiler]]It turns out that, even though Eric is mortal, he has become so evil that he is [i]not[/i] immune to the Dagger of Boidros: it can destroy him as well.[[/spoiler]]

* MaskedLuchador: The titular heroes, of course.

* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: A great deal of fuss is made over the Wolf Man's need to seduce Laura Cristaldi in order to conduct an unholy ritual with her... which we never see, though we do see its result.

** Leaving the battle with the werewolves offscreen might have averted a FightSceneFailure. ''Lucha'' films tended to hire ''luchadors'' instead of stunt actors, which would lower the odds of anyone knowing how to stage-fight with daggers.
