Action, Crime
Max Fist (Joe Manganiello) is a local drunk who claims to be a superhero from the planet Chromium. He tells anyone who will listen that he was pulled into a wormhole, falling through time and space, and dropped to earth without any of his powers. No one pays any attention to Max except a teenager named Hamster (Skyland Brooks) who cannot get enough of Max’s stories. When Hamster and his sister (Zolee Griggs) get in trouble with a vicious drug syndicate led by The Managers (Glenn Howerton), Max takes to the streets as a brutal vigilante hellbent on proving himself as the hero no one believes him to be.
Coming off the critically acclaimed horror film Daniel Isn’t Real, writer-director Adam Egypt Mortimer is now switching gears towards the superhero genre with Archenemy. The film premiered at Beyond Fest.
