Plot Summary for
Batman Returns (1992) More at IMDbPro »

Having defeated the Joker, Batman now faces the Penguin - a warped and deformed individual who is intent on being accepted into Gotham society. Crooked businessman Max Schreck is coerced into helping him become Mayor of Gotham and they both attempt to expose Batman in a different light. Earlier however, Selina Kyle, Max's secretary, is thrown from the top of a building and is transformed into Catwoman - a mysterious figure who has the same personality disorder as Batman. Batman must attempt to clear his name, all the time deciding just what must be done with the Catwoman. Written by Graeme Roy <gsr@cbmamiga.demon.co.uk>

In this, the second Batman movie, megalomaniac businessman Max Shreck sets a plot against Gotham City in motion. He is joined by Penguin, a deformed and rather deranged man abandoned at birth by respectable parents. Penguin, backed by hoodlums and real penguins, runs for mayor. The plot is further complicated by Selena, a wronged secretary who transforms into Catwoman, a villain with mixed motives. Written by Reid Gagle

Gotham City faces two monstrous criminal menaces: the bizarre, sinister Penguin and the slinky, mysterious Catwoman. Can Batman battle two formidable foes at once? Especially when one wants to be mayor and the other is romantically attracted to Gotham's hero? Written by Robert Lynch <docrlynch@yahoo.com>

After successfully defeating the Joker, the Dark Knight, known as Batman helps to keep Gotham City a safe place. Beneath the city in the sewers, another villain emerges. Known as the Penguin, he joins up with Max Shreck and targets the position of new mayor. Whilst Batman tries to uncover the truth behind the Penguin, the Catwoman also emerges with her own agenda in mind, but not without mixed feelings. Written by FilmFanUk
