'Hunk' from 1987 is a comedy-fantasy film about a young and unattractive computer nerd named Bradley (played by Steve Levitt), who desperately wishes to be better-looking so that he can win the affections of his crush, a beautiful co-worker named Robin (played by Deborah Shelton). His luck changes when he encounters a supernatural salesman named O'Brien (played by James Coco), who offers him a deal he can't refuse - to become a muscular and attractive man named Hunk Golden (played by John Allen Nelson) in exchange for his soul, and work as his assistant in a lavish mansion in Beverly Hills.

Bradley decides to accept the offer, and soon finds himself living in a luxurious mansion with all the material possessions he could ever ask for, a harem of beautiful women at his disposal, and the attention of the media as a superstar fitness model. However, as he indulges in his new life, he realizes that he's lost his true identity, and that his soul is slowly being corrupted by the satirical underworld of show business.

As he attempts to find a way out of his bargain with O'Brien and win back the heart of the woman he truly loves, Bradley realizes that he must face his own inner demons and embrace his true self in order to break free from his superficial persona as Hunk Golden.

Directed by Lawrence Bassoff, 'Hunk' blends elements of supernatural fantasy, romance, and comedy to create a fun and satirical take on the classic Faustian tale. The film showcases the transformation of a nerdy and insecure young man into a confident and attractive superstar, while also exploring themes of superficiality, personal identity and the true meaning of self-worth.

One of the notable aspects of the film is the performance of John Allen Nelson, who delivers a charismatic and engaging portrayal of the titular character, Hunk Golden. Nelson's comedic timing and physicality add depth to the satire and make for an entertaining viewing experience.

Another highlight of the film is the chemistry between the main characters. Steve Levitt's nerdy and relatable portrayal of Bradley creates a strong contrast to Deborah Shelton's confident and beautiful Robin. The tension and romance between the two characters serve as the driving force of the plot, and the eventual resolution of their relationship brings a satisfying conclusion to the story.

Overall, 'Hunk' is a fun and entertaining comedy-fantasy that offers a satirical take on the classic story of temptation and redemption. With its stunning visuals, charismatic performances, and engaging storyline, the film is a must-watch for fans of the genre.

Hunk is a 1987 fantasy movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 42 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.6.
