The Rise and Fall of Zor
The Rise and Fall of Zor is a tale of a kind youthful hero who resides in his father’s kingdom where an evil villain tries to escape from imprisonment.
The old man’s soul vanquished into the magical powerball key for eternity during his attempt to escape prison. The square shaped key is the third eye of evil that purposely causes Zor and his father, the King, to travel through time from Planet Vernie to the New World, where they meet up with a group of high schoolers who love to party.
But when he meets his damsel in distress, the fight between good and evil leads to Zor going through mutation changes, thanks to the evil imprisoned genie whose soul lies within the key, handed over to him by none other than his father, the King.
