Species II

I remember seeing this when I was like 7 and being mildly freaked out by it. For that, I still feel a little gross and creeped out by this watching it damn near 14 years later. This is bad on almost every level. Not that the first one was all that, but I at least credit it for being something I personally haven't seen elsewhere. That doesn't mean I needed to see it again, done so almost worse in every way. However, congrats...you've made me feel very uncomfortable...

Michael Douglas never got a single chance to fuck an alien (on screen) in the 90s, he would’ve been perfect as the pervert astronaut hellbent on fucking every woman on earth just as much as this sequel tries to with the audience lol what glorious stupid trash. Maybe Jon Lovitz

Much like how Jesus sacrificed his own body for the rest of humanity, I have sacrificed my eyes, ears, and mind through this hell of an experience so you'll never have to. If you're reading this and have yet to see Species II, I bring you great news: You are clean. You have yet to be poisoned. You are a beautiful person and for the love of God, please listen to my advice so you can remain beautiful. Do not join the wicked and the damned. I feel sickly and violated. I'm depressed.

I am not sure the first film did well enough to warrant a sequel, but here we are, and here I am having watched it. There are times like these, where you spent time doing things and wonder, "what else could I be doing?" Climbing Everest? Attending the poor lepers? Oh well, time to watch Robocop 3.

BAD

Absolute trash. Not even good for laughs, just horrible.

One of the most poorly written films I have ever seen. Effects are nice though.

Henstridgesploitation

Manages to be worse than the original.

Having just returned from a mission to Mars, Commander Ross (Justin Lazard) isn't exactly himself. He's slowly becoming a terrifying alien entity with one goal -- to procreate with human women! When countless women suffer gruesome deaths after bearing half-alien offspring, scientist Laura Baker (Marg Helgenberger) and hired assassin Press Lennox (Michael Madsen) use Eve (Natasha Henstridge), a more tempered alien clone, to find Ross and his brood. Before long Eve escapes to mate with Ross.

More pair of boobies. Boobies II.

A complete clusterfuck

Basically nerd porn

The first film in this franchise was underwhelming, and here we get a less developed plot (with more potential though) and a lesser'ish cast. There are more random lesser boobs and nudity and it improves a bit towards the end, but a better script and more Natasha.H would've been more pleasure and less guilty. *Preview*: #13#, re-2*, popcorn, 'pt1', oldies(2) }*{ #90s#, popcorn, 'pt1', (cast), R3.

Kinda muddies up the story of the first one by reintroducing the aliens by a second, completely different, just as out there idea. This one is cheesy on a different level from the first, but tries to hold on to legitimacy by keeping Michael Madsen on the payroll, for whatever that's worth. At least Henstridge is still hot.

If you enjoyed the first you should enjoy this one as well. Most of the main characters are back and they are still really believable in their roles. Not a film for weak little flowers as there is plenty of blood, nastiness and some nice nudity thrown in as well.

On this performance, this particular species should be on the endangered list

Infected astronaught goes wild, sexy alien girl to the rescue. A bit like a Japanese import

Barely remember much of it but...ugh.

Just a rehash of the first one.

Nowhere near the original in terms of story, but still entertaining.

ok

I saw the 1st one right? :P

When one of the stars of the movie (Madsen) calls it a "crock of shit," you know it's got to be pretty bad. It's not one of the worst movies I've ever seen, but it was just very run-of-the-mill and unnecessary. The first entry in the Species franchise really wasn't anything special and the sequel is even less worthwhile.

Somehow, for whatever reason, my father thought it would be a good idea to take my brother and I to see this in theatres when I was 11 years old. Looking back, I remember very little of this film other than Cromwell's death scene (what the fuck is he doing here anyway) and Natasha Henstridge's naked body. I also remember thinking the movie sucked, and for an 11 year old to think that of a movie about a hot nude alien sex-killer love-mantis says a lot. The product placement is comical.

The best things about the movie are the beginning and the end, and not just because it sucked: the crisis starts with good ol' American flag-waving in a place it doesn't belong, and ends with the Americans having saved the day and rushing from the ruins for another grand adventure.

Even the nudity is boring in the sequel. It only really gets interesting when Henstridge gets something to do in the final 15 minutes. Until then she just sits there looking pretty, but not actually doing anything. On that note, though, how stupid are the scientists in this film? They keep her in exactly the same place as in the first film, so duh, she escapes in exactly the same way. ORDER SOME REINFORCED GLASS, MORONS!

Pretty rubbish in all departments, but the whole of the "Species" francise is a little bit of a guilty pleasure of mine.

Any excuse will suffice to bring on the gore, boobs & alien slime. And fortunately serves up a full plate of gore, although the boobs aren't served hot enough (only Natasha brings any heat to the meal), and the alien helping is scanty and mediocre. "Makes sense" isn't even on the menu. Anything where people die horribly immediately after or during sex kinda freaks me out.

Plenty of nudity/sex, but that's pretty much it.

I'm sorry, was there a movie here? I was too busy looking at Natasha's b--

watchable

Not great, just so-so. Natasha Henstridge is the only reason to watch.

First rule of the business of show: give the people what they want. 110965748-b rule; failing that, give them more soft core nuddy Natasha What-not in more preposterous sci-fi bilge. The first was poor, this is somehow worse.

Once, this was on my worst movie-top 3. To think of all the crap I've watched since, to make me regard this as merely repulsively bad.

Nasty sexual violence adds a level of discomfort lacking in the more pleasurable original, but at least Natasha's in it.

directing is ok...but movie is pointless
