Stargate is the story of a mid 90s film that launched a thousand TV spin offs, or something like that. All of the now classic sci-fi tropes and trappings are present and correct - and the premise is a simple one, yet nearly as flexible as Doctor Who.Davidson is noteworthy as the hoarse voiced androgynous alien with the impossibly white sclera and gives a genuinely creepy performance. Spader and Russell put in solid performances too.
The blu-ray picture quality looks excellent for the era.
Verdict: Indiana Jones in Space.
