Exo-Man is a 1977 made-for-TV science fiction film directed by Richard Irving. The film's screenplay was written by Henri Simoun and Lionel E. Siegel from a story by Martin Caidin and Henri Simoun. It stars David Ackroyd, Anne Schedeen, A Martinez, and José Ferrer.
According to Unsold TV Pilots written by Lee Goldberg the film was intended as a pilot for a continuing series. Goldberg claims the film was not accepted for series production due to lack of merchandising potential, despite relatively successful viewing numbers.
A professor, who has been paralyzed in an attack by mob hit men, builds an armored suit that enables him to walk and fight crime.
The show has gained a negative criticism since it aired from Io9 and Topless Robot.
