Fun, tongue-in-cheek super hero/spy spoof/caper film. Roger Browne plays
Argoman, whose superpowers include strength, psychic ability, and
telekinesis. Since he's a suave, debonair playboy, he also likes to romance
ladies. There's one catch: if he sleeps with a woman, he loses his powers
for six hours. He and the villainous Queen of the World share a bed and a
fabulous costume sense. Naturally, Argoman has a loungey score. Great fun.
This movie is a philosophy of life: "live and take what you really want".
A
CAMP classic of maximum proportions, which ruled the world in the late
sixties, conquering all the known B-movies markets.
Sir REGINALD HOOVER/ARGOMAN is the greatest, coolest and meanest
super-hero/anti-hero ever been.
A
wild mix of the Batman series and thirty years of US comic culture,
Euro pulp villainy a la Fantomas and Judex, self-referential `masked
superhero' genre goofs on Diabolik and Superargo, exploding 60s pop-art
cinema, James Bond recycling and fertile Italian filmic
cross-pollination, all wrapped up in a cut-rate package with a yellow
body stocking.
