James Gunn's Super will make its world premiere as part of this year's Toronto International Film Festival "Midnight Madness" line-up.  Super centers on Frank (played by Rainn Wilson), a regular guy who decides to become a superhero when his wife (played by Liv Tyler) becomes a drug addict.  I dug the film's panel at Comic-Con and if you like James Gunn's style of humor, then Super looks like it won't disappoint.  The cast also includes Ellen Page, Kevin Bacon, Michael Rooker, and Nathan Fillion.

Hit the jump to check out a new image from Super as well as a list of all the films playing at Midnight Madness.  This year's Toronto International Film Festival will run from September 9 – 19th. [Updated with new films and a synopsis for each film]

Bunraku

(dir. Guy Moshe, USA)

In a world with no guns, a mysterious drifter (Josh Hartnett), a young samurai and a bartender (Woody Harrelson) plot revenge against a ruthless leader (Ron Perlman) and his army of thugs, headed by nine diverse and deadly assassins. This visually stunning film is filled with uniquely choreographed action sequences of a new style that melds east with west and old school with new. The film also stars Demi Moore.

The Butcher, The Chef and the Swordsman

Fire of Conscience

(dir. Dante Lam, Hong Kong, China)

Dante Lam proves himself to be a talent to look out for in this slam bang action film where robbers and gunrunners battle with cops on the busy urban streets of Hong Kong. Starring Leon Lai, Fire of Conscience is easily one of loudest action films from Hong Kong in recent memory, with an orchestra of exploding grenades and machine gun rounds.
