Taking comfort in clichés...

Warning: Spoilers
El Santo this guy AIN'T. As much as I hate to say it, THE MASKED SAINT plays out not unlike my own RATMAN series done decades ago for Public Access (with the notable exception of the religious angle). THE MASKED SAINT is the kind of clichéd storytelling normally the stock and trade of Television producers (where everything used to be as "comforting" to the mindless masses who suckled nightly as was humanly possible; this made the hawking of snake oil more palatable). In a world where a hundred people can be gunned down in a single night by a lone gunman, it behooves anyone who wants to make a masked hero movie to dig a bit deeper than this.
