Details.
Wiki.
Zoom, Zoom, Superman! is a 1973 Filipino parody film of DC Comics superhero Superman. The film stars Ariel Ureta as the titular superhero, and is also his debut film. Filipino director Joey Gosiengfiao, who is known for his campy films, directed this film as one of his firsts. Elwood Perez and Ishmael Bernal were also co-directors. The film got three directors because it is a trilogy in one film and each director directed each episode.
The film had copyright infringement issues even though it is a parody, a work that is protected from copyright violation because of the fair use principle. From 1973 to 1981, it was the highest grossing film in Philippine cinema, even defeating other known box-office breaking actors during those times including Dolphy and Fernando Poe Jr. This record was surpassed by the 1981 film Dear Heart that top-billed Sharon Cuneta and Gabby Concepcion.
