FantasyActionComedyScience Fiction

In WWII, Captain Invincible used his superpowers against the Nazis and was hailed as a hero. But when he was accused of treason, he retired to Australia in disgrace. Cut to the present, when a US super secret super weapon is stolen and he's asked to come back to the States in order to help stop evil and restore his sterling reputation. Unfortunately, Captain Invincible is a drunk now...

VIBE

A gloriously cheesy, big-hearted 80s superhero musical. It's a fun, energetic romp with a surprisingly earnest core, perfect for a nostalgic blast from the past.
