Operación Mantis (El exterminio del macho)
Synopsis
A beautiful woman, apparently a sophisticated Miss, is killed while skiing in Candanchú, an accurate shot in the head. But she is more than a beautiful model. It is a secret service agent of the terrorist organization IAAT His death triggers the alarm at the headquarters of the organization and the supreme leader, the bold and elegant Mr. Alfa , decides to take matters into. Three super-they are called to investigate the case, it is the courageous Mayor Sam Stevenson (Paul Naschy), the shrewd Marcello Antonelli (JL Vazquez), and the beautiful and reckless Alferez Allyson Love (Anne Karin).

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 15
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
