Tuesday Evenings at the Movies

Egyptologist Daniel Jackson (James Spader) is approached and offered a job translating hieroglyphic symbols; he does not know about the Stargate. A team headed by Colonel Jack O’Neill (Kurt Russell) and Jackson are sent on a exploratory mission through the Stargate. On the other end is a world ruled by Ra (Jaye Davidson), an Egyptian sun god, who oppresses hordes of slave workers. The team must figure out a way to overthrow Ra, save the slaves and safely return to earth. This is original film that started the Stargate franchise (PG-13).
