Supergirl 1984

In a distant realm, teenager Kara Zor-El (Helen Slater) inhabits Argo City, an isolated Kryptonian community that miraculously survived the cataclysmic destruction of its native planet by being transported into an alternate dimension. This peculiar city thrives thanks to the Omegahedron, a diminutive yet pivotal orb that serves as its lifeblood. Unbeknownst to its residents, Zaltar (Peter O’Toole) covertly borrows this vital energy source for an artistic endeavor, only to inadvertently propel it into the vast expanse of space. As Argo City teeters on the brink of collapse without the Omegahedron’s power, Kara embarks on a perilous solo journey aboard a single-passenger spacecraft to retrieve it, much to the distress of her parents, Alura (Mia Farrell) and Zor-El (Simon Ward).

The Omegahedron traverses a wormhole, finally landing on Earth, where it is seized by Selena (Faye Dunaway), a mystical carnival fortune teller hell-bent on mastering the dark arts under the tutelage of warlock Nigel (Peter Cook). Recognizing the orb’s potential to amplify her magical prowess, Selena secretes the Omegahedron away, anticipating its use in casting spells. Upon returning to the carnival, her beleaguered assistant, Bianca (Brenda Vaccaro), laments their financial struggles, only for Selena to reveal a plan for global domination.

Meanwhile, Kara finds herself transported through the wormhole, landing on Earth and transforming into “Supergirl,” adorned in a costume eerily reminiscent of her cousin Superman’s iconic attire. As he is away, engaged in a peacekeeping mission in outer space, Kara discovers she has acquired extraordinary abilities and takes to the skies, marveling at this new world. A glowing bracelet on her wrist serves as a beacon, guiding her to Midvale, Illinois. There, she enrolls in an all-female boarding school, posing as Clark Kent’s first cousin, Linda Lee, an orphaned young woman. Under the watchful eye of the headmaster, Mr. Danvers (David Healy), Kara is assigned to share a room with Lucy Lane (Maureen Tuffy), the teenage sister of Daily Planet reporter Lois Lane.

In the midst of swooning over Ethan (Hart Bochner), the school’s charming groundskeeper, both Selena and Bianca find themselves smitten. In a bid to expedite matters, Selena concocts a love potion and discreetly adds it to Ethan’s beer. However, the supposed amorous elixir has an unexpected outcome - it leaves Ethan disoriented and wandering aimlessly through town. Selena, undeterred by this unforeseen twist, employs the Omegahedron’s mystical powers to conjure a spell that guides a wayward bulldozer straight into her path. The unmanned machine wreaks havoc on the unsuspecting town, with even Lucy Lane and her photographer boyfriend, Jimmy Olsen (Marc McClure), struggling to contain its destructive power.

As Selena observes the chaos unfold through the Omegahedron-powered magic mirror, her anger simmers, fueling a vengeful spell that targets Linda Lee. A dark cloud materializes, threatening to ensnare Linda, but she transforms into Supergirl and seizes a streetlamp post, using it as a makeshift lightning rod to deflect the dark energy. The Omegahedron’s power courses through Supergirl’s bracelet, illuminating her determination.

Returning to her human form, Linda Lee heads to the carnival, where she finds Ethan waiting with sweet treats and flowers in hand. As they chat on a halted Ferris wheel, Selena seizes an opportunity to exact revenge, casting a spell that sends the ride hurtling at top speed. Ethan is knocked unconscious, but Linda’s quick thinking allows her to transform into Supergirl once more.

With her powers, she encircles Selena in a makeshift cage using nearby poles, then rescues Ethan from the chaos. As the dust settles, Linda and Ethan share a tender moment, their connection now strengthened by the unpredictable events that have unfolded.

As Selena (formerly bound) seeks Nigel’s expertise to vanquish Supergirl, she finds herself reliant on the warlock’s arcane prowess. Nigel provides a potent magic wand, capable of amplifying the Omegahedron’s mystical properties and unleashing devastating spells. However, in his haste, Nigel inadvertently shatters the love potion spell, causing Ethan to lose all romantic affection for Linda. In a curious turn of events, Ethan soon finds himself enamored with Supergirl, who seals their connection with a tender kiss mere moments before Selena teleports him to her lair using a powerful incantation.

As fate would have it, Selena also conjures a majestic mountaintop castle outside the town’s boundaries, where Supergirl discovers Ethan imprisoned. Seizing the opportunity, Selena casts a spell that banishes Supergirl to the Phantom Zone, a realm where planet Krypton sends its most notorious criminals. This mystical dimension is home to Zaltar from Argo City, who exiled himself as penance for losing the Omegahedron.

Though devoid of superhuman abilities within the Phantom Zone, Supergirl finds solace in Zaltar’s presence. Together, they face an insurmountable cliff, only to discover that Zaltar sacrifices his own well-being to enable Supergirl’s escape. Meanwhile, Selena has begun her quest for global domination on Earth, ruling Midvale with an iron fist and an arsenal of soldiers. However, she faces fierce resistance from protesters, including Lucy Lane and Jimmy Olsen, whom she takes hostage.

As the stakes escalate, Supergirl manages to break free from the Phantom Zone through a mystical mirror and arrives at Selena’s stronghold. In response, Selena unleashes a monstrous demon to do her bidding, which nearly defeats Supergirl. Just as all hope seems lost, Zaltar’s ethereal voice urges Supergirl to persevere, prompting her to devise a plan that involves taming the demon. Supergirl succeeds in channeling a focused whirlwind that ensnares Selena, only to have the demon turn on its master and render her helpless. As the whirlwind pulls in Bianca as well, the three are drawn through the mirror portal, which promptly reforms, trapping them forever within the Phantom Zone’s confines.

As the truth begins to unravel, Ethan’s hands carefully cradle the Omegahedron, its power and significance now fully grasped. The revelation that Supergirl is none other than Linda Lee, a familiar face in Ethan’s world, sends shockwaves through his understanding of reality. With this newfound insight, Supergirl implores Lucy, Jimmy, and Ethan to maintain the secrecy surrounding her existence, a solemn request that underscores the magnitude of her responsibilities. The Omegahedron, now freed from its prison beneath Selena’s castle, is surrendered to Supergirl as she prepares to return it to its rightful place.

As the mystical energy dissipates, the very fabric of reality seems to bend and warp around her. With the Omegahedron in tow, Supergirl embarks on a journey through the swirling vortex of the underwater wormhole, leaving behind the crumbling remnants of Selena’s stronghold. The darkness that had consumed Argo City is momentarily eclipsed as Supergirl soars back into the heart of her home, her return illuminated by an otherworldly glow that seems to pulse with the Omegahedron’s power. As the city’s lights flicker back to life, Kara Zor-El, the Girl of Steel, stands tall once more, her presence a beacon of hope in a world forever changed by the secrets she now holds.
