Kiss Get Superpowers In A TV Movie

1978

Kiss star in the TV movie Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park.

In the live-action movie, which airs on NBC, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss are imbued with superpowers (yes, Simmons can breathe fire). In a very Scooby Doo plot, they must stop an evil scientist at an amusement part. Kiss music plays throughout the film, which achieves a new level of cheesy.
