- Synopsis:
Beyond comprehension, beyond imagination and beyond the deepest regions of this galaxy... life as we know it is about to end! James Spader and Oscar nominee Angela Bassett strike sparks and Lou Diamond Phillips, Oscar nominee Robert Forster and the mesmerizing Robin Tunney are stunning in this spectacular sci-fi thriller that expands the universe of suspense to a whole new realm of raw power and unspeakable terror. In the farthest reaches of deep space, the medical vessel Nightingale keeps a lonely vigil for those in trouble. When a frantic cry for help pierces the void, the crew responds with a near fatal, hyperspace dimension jump into the gravitational pull of a dying star. The disables ship rescues a shuttlecraft containing a mysterious survivor and a strange alien artefact. Now the crew must unravel a chilling secret and the nearby imploding star before the forming supernova blasts them and entire galaxy into oblivion. - Actors:

Walter Hill's lost sci-fi - Supernova review by AER
Wrecked in the edit, director Walter Hill had his name taken off this sci-fi and credited to the name Thomas Lee. It's hard to know what the original looked like, but Supernova in it's completed state is a standard actioner in space which is let down by a very bad and crap villain. All characterisation has been jettisoned too, which makes this a complete missed opportunity. James Spader, Angela Bassett and the principal cast show promise but it's easy to see why the villain Peter Facinelli didn't scale the heights of Hollywood. A curio but not worth the hours.
