2012: Supernova is a 2009 direct-to-video science fiction disaster film by The Asylum. The film is a mockbuster of the Columbia Pictures film 2012, which was released a month later. It is the second film in the Asylum's 2012 "Trilogy" though the films have nothing to do with the other. The other two films are titled 2012: Doomsday and 2012: Ice Age.

Plot

When a star gone supernova threatens to destroy the Earth, an astrophysicist puts together a dangerous and desperate plan to shield the Earth from the destructive burst of radiation heading toward it.

Cast

Reception

The film has mostly poor reviews for various reasons, including its conveniently timed release so close to the release of the film 2012, which is based on a similar concept.
