The glut of comic-book movies that fill the cinema these days has also led to a perhaps not surprising look back among fans, filmmakers and commentators at the simpler times of the genre, with documentaries and oral histories emerging about everything from the ill-fated Nicolas Cage Superman to the nearly forgotten 1970s Doctor Strange TV movie and beyond. The latest of these trips to what-might-have-been land, and in some cases what-never-should’ve-been land, is Doomed: The Untold Story of Roger Corman's the Fantastic Four, which is out on DVD and Blu-ray this week.
An 84-minute retrospective about the never (officially) released film from the early 1990s, Doomed is a pretty interesting (if blandly assembled) journey for those already invested in superhero history, and in particular the sometimes labyrinthine Hollywood deals that Stan Lee and Marvel Comics got its properties involved with back before the current heyday that has placed its heroes at the top tier of the multiplex blockbusters.
