Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan sends James T. Kirk into his ultimate mission as Starfleet commander: How does one face death? Nearing retirement, grounded Admiral Kirk jumps at the chance to get back out into space and observe the new batch running the Enterprise. But when long-exiled uber-mensch Khan threatens his crew (and the known galaxy) with an experimental terraforming apparatus called the Genesis Device, Kirk takes the captain’s chair one more time to stop the vengeful Khan and save the Federation. This may be the Enterprise’s most hard-fought battle yet, and it will cost them dearly. A sequel to the original series episode “Space Seed,” Khan features the terrifyingly theatrical Ricardo Montalban reprising his unforgettable role and embodying Kirk’s greatest foe, and perhaps too, his greatest fear. Try not to yell.
