The Rider of the Skulls (1965 Mexico)

aka El Charro de las Calaveras

The Rider of the Skulls, a masked (by a black handkerchief with eye-holes in it) Zorro-esque avenger, rides into town just in time to see a villager get his face torn off by a werewolf and he boards with the family of a boy being terrorized by the monster who's identity hits close to home. After solving the mystery and putting the creature to rest with the help of a cackling witch who can raise the dead to provide a clue or two, Rider takes the kid and his comic, cowardly servant along on further adventures which include dispatching a bat-headed vampire and dueling to the death with a headless horseman looking for his lost cabeza. After righting these wrongs, our fearless hero and his ragtag band of rescuees (including the senorita who inherited said talking head in a box) ride off into the sunset in search of more evil to vanquish -something the Rider vowed to do after bandidos murdered his parents. Jaw-dropping Mexican madness (there's even a theme song) and all the better in black and white -great fun! (IMDB melvelvit-1)
