Philippe Mora’s wildly inventive Ozploitation comedy The Return of Captain Invincible is a superhero musical following a former red-caped hero (Alan Arkin) returning from drunken exile to save the world from theevil clutches of Mr. Midnight (Christopher Lee). Backed by a script co-written by Steven E. de Souza (Die Hard) and three new songs from TheRocky Horror Picture Show lyricist Richard O’Brien and composer Richard Hartley!
“[The Return of Captain Invincible] stars are clearly enjoying themselves in this charmingly ramshackle affair, which makes a virtue of its modest resources by integrating clever use of stock footage, cheapo props and cheesy costumes into an affectionate take-off of yesteryear’s quickie serials. Adeptly pitched songs by the Rocky Horror duo of Richard Hartley and Richard O’Brien add to the entertainment value of a movie that really ought to be remembered more often.” – Time Out
