Supposedly, since "El Santo" means "the Saint" in Spanish, Leslie Charteris forced these films to retitle to "Samson" in the US.
Everything is possible. After all, actor Fess Parker was always renamed "Fier Parker" in France due to the likeness between "Fess" and "fesse" (= buttock). Just imagine somebody called Buttock Parker... But "Fier" means "proud", so it sounded better. smiley: laugh
