Plot

Badmess creates Super K, a boy superhero, using the powers of all the Dreamzonians. But a goof-up causes Super K to turn out a freak in Badmess view, unable to control his powers, and he is deserted by Badmess and let his minions literally name Accidentally and Suddenly to take care Super K. Badmess befriends the evil Dr. Ozox, a masked alchemist who has his own sinister plan to take over Dreamzone.

Super K and his friends come together to protect Dreamzone from the evil clutches of Dr. Ozox, but at the same time, Super K has to learn to control his powers.[1]

Characters

Release and reception

The film was released on Yahoo! Movieplex, a feature of the Yahoo! India web site, as an exclusively online animated feature film.[2][3][4] In 2012, it was released directly to video in the United States as Kiara the Brave, with cover art showing only princess Kiara (a secondary female character with red hair). This was considered by many to be an obvious attempt to remind consumers of the female, red-headed protagonist of Brave, a Pixar Animation Studios film set in medieval Scotland.[5] Super K has been universally panned by critics and moviegoers.

In 2012 the film was also screened at the Dada Saheb Film Festival in Delhi.[6]

gollark: Well, yes, that is a feature.
gollark: Practically not much, with current technology.
gollark: Yes, technically basically anything can except... immutable laws of the universe.
gollark: E-fuses and stuff hardwired onto an ASIC are pretty read-only.
