Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Puma Man, also known as The Puma Man, The Pyooma Man, The Pyewmaymin, or L'Uomo Puma, is a 1980s superhero movie produced by Italians in English.The plot? Our villain is Dr. Kobras (Donald Pleasence in a shiny futuristic muu-muu), who has gotten his hands on a huge golden Aztec mask, which contains alien circuitry that allows it to control minds. He plans to use it to dominate world leaders, and already has a collection of papier-mâché heads signifying his mental conquests. Only one man can stop him: the eponymous Puma Man, the scion of a line of "man-gods" sired by ancient spacefaring Aztec alien puma things. He's an American living in nearby London, so Kobras sets off to determine who his foe is by hurling potential candidates out of windows. Only the Puma Man could survive that, y'see.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Our hero is Tony Farms (Walter George Alton), an American paleontologist who is quickly discovered by Vadinho (Miguel Ángel Fuentes), an Aztec priest of the space-gods. The hulking holy man becomes Tony's mentor by hurling him out a window, chasing him around a university, and breaking into his apartment to aggressively push his belief system and fashion accessories. Tony is understandably reluctant to get involved in all this, but after mind-controlled love interest Jane Dobson (Sydne Rome) is used to lure him into a trap, Tony finally accepts his heroic destiny and a magical Aztec belt, transforming into the mighty Puma Man!Now firmly allied with Vadinho, Tony sets about mastering his puma-derived superpowers to get the sacred mask out of Kobras' hands. He can see in the dark, sense danger, "leap" great distances (or fly, the writers don't seem to be sure), teleport, and feign death quite convincingly - you know, standard puma stuff. Oh, and his fingers can act as super-strong "claws", which Vadinho belatedly remembers to mention in the middle of a major battle. And possibly super-strength, which he uses to flip a car over and break the ropes he's bound with late in the movie, but not much else. Anyway, with these skills in hand, Tony heroically attacks Kobras' mansion stronghold, is soundly defeated, gets caught by Kobras' hypnosis, retreats, loses his superpowers through Kobras' mental commands, is nearly Driven to Suicide by Kobras' mind games, and heroically plays dead until the villain's minions go away.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Vadinho then leads his own assault against Kobras, using a suicide belt to bluff his way inside. The Aztec resists the villain's hypnotism and demolishes his command center, while Jane Dobson smashes Tony's papier-mâché head, removing Kobras' mental control over him and restoring his powers. Puma Man quickly teleports to the rescue and helps the Aztec take down wave after wave of mooks, prompting Kobras to make a run for it. In the end, Tony is barely able to overcome an elderly bald man and cause Kobras' helicopter to crash, the golden mask is recovered, Vadinho gets beamed up by the alien-god-things, and Tony and Jane join the Quarter-Mile-High Club.It was the featured film in an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. | |

Strong as They Need to Be | |
| Puma Man / int_1228314a | comment |
Strong as They Need to Be: Inverted. The Puma Man can tear apart an old Jaguar (car) with his bare hands and rip into a brick wall, but has trouble overcoming Kobras in a struggle. It's inconsistent whether he's supposed to have actual super-strength, or just super-strong finger "claws" to rip into things. It's mostly shown as the latter, but at one point he lifts up a car and flips it over, and late in the movie he easily breaks ropes that were binding him when he recovers his powers. | |

I Meant to Do That | |
| Puma Man / int_293f8cd8 | comment |
I Meant to Do That: There's a debate whether the movie was intentionally trying to be goofy with the way Puma Man flies. MST3K's Paul Chaplin believes this was a form of subtle humor on the part of the filmmakers while the rest of the writers believed everything was done seriously. His pose was probably intentional (he's trying to imitate a four-legged "pouncing" pose rather than a Superman-like flying pose), but the terrible special effects are probably not intentional. | |

Destination Defenestration | |
| Puma Man / int_32976084 | comment |
Destination Defenestration: Remember, the best way to spot your local Puma Man is to chuck people out of windows until one of them survives. The film puts a little too much effort into making us wonder if maybe Vadinho's one of the guys who's chucking random Americans out of windows looking for the right one, with how he stalks around wordlessly looking all creepy, tearing through all obstructions with his bare hands to get to Tony, and then suddenly grabbing him and shoving him out a window. Since he actually works for the aliens sponsoring Pumaman, you'd hope he'd have less murder-y methods for finding the right guy at his disposal. But it turns out it's not Vadinho, however — there's a quick glimpse of the two people, neither of them Vadinho, who throw one of the other victims out a window — but the movie doesn't go out of its way to make that clear. | |

Pointless Doomsday Device: While not technically a doomsday device, the mask is capable of controlling men's minds. For a race that has as a motto "Each man is a god, each man is free," there seems to be no conceivable reason for the aliens to have created this. | |

Make It Look Like an Accident: When Tony is Faking the Dead, Kobras' Dragon Ranker suggests they plug Tony's seeming dead body to make sure he's dead. Kobras overrules him, saying it would point to murder, not suicide. Of course, the question must be asked: who would know and who would care? (It's been established that Kobras controls the police and government at this point.) | |

Voodoo Shark | |
| Puma Man / int_41a894d2 | comment |
Voodoo Shark: As mentioned in Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?, below, Kobras telling his thugs not to shoot Tony to make sure he's dead really makes no sense. Kobras had no problem chucking four people out of high rise windows in broad daylight before he controlled half the government and the police force. The man can literally get away with murder and already has. It's obvious that the real reason he tells them not to shoot is because then the rest of the movie would be Vadinho cleaning things up by himself and then spending the rest of his days living with the guilt of having gotten The Chosen One killed stupidly. It would have actually made more sense if the thugs just hadn't even brought it up at all. | |

| Puma Man / int_50df846 | comment |
Danger Sense: An awkward implementation. It manifests by giving him a headache and/or a dizzy spell several minutes before the actual danger occurs, and gives him no indication of what the danger will be or where it'll come from. Worse, half the time he just ignores it. (For example, Vadinho warned him that his life would be in danger at the Dutch embassy, his danger sense goes off at the Dutch embassy, but he's still taken completely by surprise when Kobras' thugs attack him at the Dutch embassy) | |

My Significance Sense Is Tingling/Spider-Sense: Tony gets headaches when trouble's around.

Animal-Themed Superbeing: Type II (Animal Alias). His powers are only vaguely catlike, though. Vadinho does refer a few times to the Great God Puma, so Puma Man may derive thematically from a catlike Aztec god, not from the cat itself. | |

Satellite Love Interest: Jane. A character so lacking in personality that she barely qualifies as a cardboard cutout. And yet she still manages to prove herself to have more Heroic Willpower than our "hero" by managing to repeatedly resist (if not completely overcome) Kobras' mind control when he was completely unable to. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Puma Man / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: It's unclear where Kobras' second-in-command Ranker disappears to. He spends most of the movie by Kobras' side, acting as his mouthpiece and sounding board, but after checking whether Tony committed suicide, he's reduced to a background character with no further lines. When Vadinho starts fighting in the climactic final battle, Ranker is taken out with one punch and then vanishes entirely, even though all the other nameless thugs take multiple hits from both Vadinho and Tony and keep coming back for more. | |

New Powers as the Plot Demands: Since the Puma Man's powers are never actually defined, pretty much anything he does counts as this. He will constantly be informed of another power just in time for him to use it right then and there. He even discovers the power to temporarily die right when Kobras is trying to make him do just that. His powers are whatever Vadinho tells him his powers are.

The Hero | |
| Puma Man / int_e49686 | comment |
The Hero: Ostensibly Tony. He's the title character, he has some decent super powers (albeit with some of the worst special effects supporting them) which he gets a handle on how to use really quickly, and he has he occasional good idea to drive the plot forward (like sneaking a tracker into Jane's car to find Kobras' hideout). But he also has no willpower to resist the very artifact he's supposed to be the protector of, in addition to being smarmy, whiny, and not very bright overall.note The actor was probably going for "charming and roguish", but he missed the mark by a mile. This makes Vadinho, ostensibly the sidekick and/or mentor character, much more deserving of The Hero title. He's the only one who knows what's going on, and he's the only one actually effective in battle. In a scene cut from the MST3K version, he displays enough strength to lift the rear wheels of Tony's car off the ground, and is able to tear his way inside to warn Tony about a trap at the embassy (Tony goes anyway, falls into the trap). Which raises the question: why does he need the whiny git in the first place? | |

But Now I Must Go | |
| Puma Man / int_f0fe7e80 | comment |
But Now I Must Go: The gods at the beginning of the film. Later, Vadinho, who hitches a ride back to the Andes Plateau from the gods when the mask is recovered. | |

| Puma Man / int_f1c860c4 | comment |
Spider-Sense: Tony has a brief dizzy spell when he "senses danger." He tends to end up in danger anyway. | |

The Alleged Car | |
| Puma Man / int_f237981e | comment |
The Alleged Car: Tony's dorky little Eurocompact counts, given that Vadinho can tear it apart with his bare hands. | |

Survival Mantra | |
| Puma Man / int_f4a3140c | comment |
Survival Mantra: "Each man is a god... each man is free... each man is a god..." it helps Vadinho resist the mask's mind controlling power. | |

Faking the Dead | |
| Puma Man / int_f9876f7e | comment |
Faking the Dead: Heroically! Witness as Puma Man fakes his own death so Kobras will leave him alone and he can let Vadinho do everything! More Hero Than Thou: Even depowered, Tony did insist on going along with Vadinho's suicide mission... More Expendable Than You: ...but Vadinho really insisted on going alone. With his fist. | |

Mighty Whitey | |
| Puma Man / int_fed07537 | comment |
Mighty Whitey: Vadinho is far more capable, but Tony is the main character, because. And it runs in the family as Tony's father was also the Aztec's mighiest protector instead of, say, an Aztec. | |
