SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE (1987)

1 min read

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Nick Farina dig into the 1987 film SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE, the oft-maligned and infamously low-budget effort from producer The Cannon Group and director Sidney J. Furie. In Christopher Reeve’s final outing as Superman, our hero seeks to rid the world of its nuclear arsenal and faces opposition from Lex Luthor and his creation, Nuclear Man.
