Stars Maura Monti. A female wrestler called the Bat Girl, is also, by night, a masked crime-fighter with some cool electronic devices. The wrestling costume is very similar to Batman. When she's the crime-fighter, it's a bikini, a cape and mask! Pretty crazy. A demented doctor, and his evil assistant Igor, or Ygor, are working on a bizarre experiment. They are developing gill-man monsters from fish and hormones from wrestler had. By the way, not that it matters, but the gill-monster is red (not green....but looks similar to the Universal creature).
