Victor is soft-spoken and unpretentious, but when situations arise that he himself is too timid to handle, Victor is compelled to don his satin cape and cowl and becomes the heroic Captain Chaos. Psychiatrists have diagnosed Victor as having multiple personality disorder, but Victor himself is convinced that he channels the spirit of an actual living superhero who always manages to arrive just in time to save the day.[1][2][3][4] Author David Quinlan wrote of Cannonball Run in The TV Times Film and Video Guide, stating {{sic}} "The best thing in the film is Dom DeLuise who, as the schizophrenic Victor, turns moments of stress into tubby superhero Captain Chaos!"[5] CharacteristicsCaptain Chaos' costume (which Victor puts on over whatever he happens to be wearing at the time) is a long flowing orange satin cape and matching cowl with an attached black domino mask, and the word "chaos" written in white across the cowl's forehead (in the sequel film the cape and cowl are red). After Victor transforms into Captain Chaos, he speaks in a slightly lower voice register with basso profondo inflections similar to that of a typical cartoon superhero. His appearance is invariably prefaced by the vocal fanfare "Dunn dun DU-UH-UHNNNN!!", to approximate Chaos' theme music. "...Him."Most people who meet Victor are somewhat bewildered at the eventual emergence of his alter ego of Captain Chaos, whose heroism and courage are in stark contrast to Victor's milquetoast personality. Though Chaos is revered by others, he is viewed as an annoyance to Victor's boss and close friend, J.J. McClure (Burt Reynolds). Because of this, Victor is expressly forbidden to speak the name of Captain Chaos in J.J.'s presence, hence the reason Victor always cautiously refers to the hero simply as "...Him." (usually followed by a twinge of magical music). Near the beginning of the first film, Victor makes mention of "...Him", but audiences are briefly left wondering who Victor is talking about until he and J.J. crash their test race car after being stopped at a police road block; when one of the cops asks who they think they are, Victor, in cape and cowl, emerges from the passenger side and introduces himself for the first time as Captain Chaos while J.J., whom he introduces as his "faithful companion, Kato", sits in embarrassment in the driver's seat. Near the film's end, J.J.'s disdain for Captain Chaos boils over after he loses the race, and J.J. angrily rips the cape and cowl off of Victor's person, but Victor almost immediately dons a new alter ego he names "Captain USA", whose cape and cowl are similar, only blue in color, spangled with white stars and with "USA" embroidered onto the cowl's forehead. In the sequel film, J.J. is more tolerant of the good Captain when he shows up during a fight with the mafia. AbilitiesCaptain Chaos' "powers" include:
OriginIn the first film, when Pamela (Farrah Fawcett) asks Victor how he came to know Captain Chaos, Victor explains: {{cquote|When I was real young, I didn't have any friends like I do now, like J.J., and... well, like J.J. One day, I was in the schoolyard, nine guys were beatin' me up pretty good, and there he was. Dun dun DUNNN!...out of the blue! Pow! Slam! Bam! Baff! I sure was grateful. Nobody bothered me at school after that.}}FilmographyThe character of Captain Chaos as portrayed by Dom DeLuise has appeared in The Cannonball Run (1981), Cannonball Run II (1984), and his alter ego, Victor Prinzim, appeared (in doll form) in the Robot Chicken episode "Gold Dust Gasoline" (2005), voiced by DeLuise.[6] NotesIn the initial screenplay draft, the alter-ego of Captain Chaos was termed "Rahul." [7] Washington Redskins' tight end Chris Cooley (2004-2012), was given the nickname "Captain Chaos" by his teammates. This nickname was created when teammates bet him he would not go out to the opening coin toss and introduce himself to the opposing team captains as "Captain Chaos". He did, and the nickname stuck.
