Supergirl Betamax 1985 - VGA 80+ NM, Full-Box Slipcase, Flatback Seal, White MCA Home Video Canada Watermarks, IVE, Inc. Supergirl, the 1984 superhero film featuring Helen Slater as the titular character, is an ambitious but ultimately flawed entry into the world of comic book adaptations that had a mixed effect on fans. The film explores the adventures of Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El, as she battles an evil sorceress and tries to save Earth. Its effect on fans was one of curiosity and disappointment, as they were intrigued by the prospect of a female superhero but let down by the film's execution and script. The film remains a nostalgic relic for some fans, celebrated for its pioneering effort to bring a female superhero to the forefront but also criticized for its missed potential and lackluster reception, making it a divisive entry in the superhero genre.

This factory sealed Canadian Beta copy of Supergirl comes in the 1985-dated full-box slipcase and has side white MCA Canada watermarks. It has received an overall grade of 80+ NM by VGA, with a Box subgrade of 85 and a Seal subgrade of 80.
