Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone can remember a sci fi movie from the mid 80's (I think).

I only saw the movie once so forgive me if this description is not totally accurate.

It was about a man who went into space or maybe to the moon/another planet, and he was blinded, or partually blinded by a ray of some sort.

When he came back to earth he eventually discovered that his eyes were extremely sensitive to the sun. He was forced to wear specially he made sunglasses, but when his eyes were exposed to sunlight he had special powers.

I'm not sure exactly what he could do but I think he could transmit electricity through his body (I recall he burnt a hole in a wire fence just by touching it), and I think he could also run extremely fast, among other things.

As I said, I only watched this film once, it was on TV around 1987/88. I just remember I thought it was pretty good. Although now I'm 15 years older it may not seem as good [Smile]

Anyway, just wondered if this rings a bell with anyone, and whether they could tell me the name of it.

I've had a brief look around the net for it, but unfortunatly I don't know the name of the movie, nor any of the actors in it, so as you can guess its a little hard to find any info on it.

Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help

Regards

Kev
