A 1975 made-for-TV reworking of the 1966 Broadway musical concerning a mad scientist and rival reporter who scheme to push Superman into a mental breakdown. This is my own rip of the bootleg -- I've tweaked the picture to improve the quality (as best as I could), included the original title and a missing credit from the ABC broadcast, tacked on an assortment of super-commercials, and created custom captions and chapters. Unfortunately, there's a strange faint audio ghosting throughout, but my every attempt to remove it just distorted the sound.
