This movie may have been an HBO movie that I saw early 80's at a friend's house. Don't know the actor, I just know this guy had super powers. One example of super power was he was chewing a piece of gum and blew a big bubble that it turned into a sort of hot air balloon. However, anytime he saw the color yellow he lost his powers. That is all I remember, can anyone help?

Could it possibly be "zapped" starring scott baio?

Super Fuzz, but it's red that makes him lose his powers.

Good try... but no cigar. However, I do remember "Zapped" very funny movie.
