Just
before bounty hunter Charlie (Don Keith
Opper) triggers his gun to destroy the
last two Critter-eggs, he gets a message
from Ug (Terrence Mann) that it would be
illegal to extinguish the race from the
galaxy.
He is sent in space with a transporter
with the eggs in a deep sleep and awakens
53 deep-frozen years later in a ship with
a half dozen of people in a private
wreckage heading to Earth as they never
have discovered their own home planet.
Unfortuantely the eggs have hatched and
the Crites are on the loose laying more
eggs and planning to take over the ship
as well as feasting on anyone there.
At first the crew of the ship thinks that
Charlie is a suspect after their crazed
captain named Rick (Anders Hove) was
killed but then they experience these
creatures killing another one of their
crew member as well so they plan to snuff
them out before they are next.
This back to back sequel was an
improvement yet it takes almost forever
for the Crites to come and wreck terror
and havoc.
This flick can easily be considered an Alien
clone as it had similar elements to it as
the people in the future are aboard a
ship with some alien creatures stalking
around and they plan to blow it up.
However, they do add some different
elements too like an avil bounty hunter
climbing on board and other stuff like
that.
Let's hope this film will be the last one
though as the story became terribly trite
and bland.
The acting is
powerfully good with a great experiences
cast involved.
Don Keith Opper made up for his
performance and knew how to act energetic
and nutty as ever.
Teenage actor Paul Whitthorne is
dynamic with his energy as well as the
youngest crew member on the ship and
could have had a promising acting career.
Angela Bassett pulled her weight
perfectly and portrayed her role well by
being tough when she needed to be.
Anders Hove was perfect playing an
arrogant and crazy captain of the ship.
Terrence Mann was different with his
character this time turning evil and
seems to portray that part alot better.
There's a butt
shot on Angela Bassett while
taking a shower.
Rupert
Harvey took on the direction this
time around and is passable with his
work.
He shows a nice beginning where the last
sequel left off with Don Keith Opper
looking around the suite for Crites and
was nicely touched with a computer effect
showing Terrence Mann's image
appearing talking to him about his next
mission.
A good shot of outerspace along with a
futuristic group of people performed by
the rest of the main cast socialising and
arguing about stuff as well as having
difficulty commanding the ship.
A nice shot on Angela Bassett
showering while Anders Hove
shows pleasant expressions making out for
him to join her and then throws a nice
sucker punch and looking aggressive too.
Paul Whitthorne does well with his
nervous frustrations trying to control an
elevator in the ship.
Hove looked great by trying to blast
open a stowaway crater with a laser gun
expressing some anger there.
There's a good dialogue scene between
Whitthorne and Hove alone
together with Hove acting crazy
with his actions and then a good shot on
him swinging a fire extinguisher at Whitthorne's
head.
A funny but gruesome looking shot of a
baby Crite charging into Hove's
mouth.
A good and panicky dialogue between Opper
and Whitthorne when they
are stuck in a trash compartment trying
to get out.
Brad Dourif does well when he tries
to call for Eric DaRe and warns
him that some Crites are coming towards
his way and he acts ignorant about it not
taking him seriously and scooping up some
pills he spilt.
A nice shot on two Crites leaping on
DaRe with him spinning around crying
in pain.
Whitthorne does well by screeching
towards Dourif telling him that
he is not his father when he tries to
hunt a Crite down.
Mann appeared very well after
aboarding the ship and acting evil
towards everyone with his screaming and
being demanding to find the eggs of the
Crites. He did well by striking Bassett
as well.
The music
is alot better and fits with the story by
Peter Manning Robinson and I can
tell you that he doesn't sound at all
cheap with his composing.
Ethan: I guess
Rick's had a little too much coffee
again?
Al Bert: Rick has got a bug up his
butt. See. He's gone and discovered
himself a magnetic space anomaly. And
he's gotten stiff in the jock.
Fran: Asshole!
Al Bert: Eh, Captain asshole.
Al Bert:
Congratulations, Charlie, you have just
murdered the ship.
Charlie: You an
alien?
Ethan: No, do I look like one?
Al Bert: Rick and
Bernie are dead. For all I know we may
have been infected by some alien germ. So
unless anyone else has another
suggestion, I propose that we just hole
up here and wait for them to come rescue
us. They will be here any minute.
Ethan: Yeah. If we don't blow up
first.
