Not that Zacarías Gómez Urquiza was a great director, but he was a good artisan when the sun was in a favorable position in his birth chart or so it seems... but it is hard to believe that this is the same person who directed "El derecho de nacer", or who was the assistant director in Mexican classics as Emilio Fernández's "Bugambilia" and "Enamorada", and Alejandro Galindo's "Una familia de tantas". This is one of several movies he made in coproduction with Colombia in the last years of his career, and not a good one. Shot in Panama in the early 1970s it combines crime with music and comedy skits that are hardly funny. The best of it all is Lorena Velázquez as the villain, but you better try to find her as the Queen of the Vampires in that bad movie with Santo, el Enmascarado de Plata, that makes you laugh when you are not supposed to. This one is not capable of even that...
