By Hook or By Crook (A garrote limpio) 38 years old

Rafael Inclan plays the campy hero in the Mexican By Hook or Crook. Known as the "Super-Mexican", detective Inclan is in his own way as dangerous as France's Inspector Clouseau. A series of murders have occured in the uppermost circles of society. Inclan vows to solve the killings, or die trying (which is a strong possibility). There's a belly-laugh a minute in this silly confection, which since its 1985 release has popped up with regularity on the various Spanish-language TV cable services.
