The explorer craft USS Palomino is returning to Earth after a fruitless 18-month search for extra-terrestrial life when the crew comes upon a supposedly lost ship, the USS Cygnus, hovering near a black hole. The ship is controlled by Dr. Hans Reinhardt and his monstrous robot companion, but the initial wonderment and awe the Palomino crew feel for the ship and its resistance to the power of the black hole turn to horror as they uncover Reinhardt's plans.

If you take into consideration when this movie was made it´s really good. Yes, the story is a bit thin but it´s quite entertaining. I remember seeing it back when I was young and I still like it. Funny thing with all this HD technology today you can easily detect all the wires they used.

Wow, my memory of this movie was wayyy off. this movie was released 2 years after Star Wars and the sfx are terrible. If you are going to have a lot of scenes were your actors are in front of the blue screen, you better figure out how to eliminate the halo effect. The was a brief scene where the Guard robots were walking and you could see through them. At the end of the movie the shuttle ride scene is ridiculous. The outer hull of the ship is destroyed and they have no problem breathing, science, who knew.

A little like the "Godi" in "Island at the Top of the World" I vividly recall the first time that I set eyes on "Maximilian" the menacing robot in this far darker Disney film from 1979. The "Palomino" discovers the long lost "Cygnus" on the precipice of a black hole and they board her. Once there, t More
