Species II (1998)
1/10
Beyond Bad!
5 February 2003
SPECIES 2 is by far the stupidest, ugliest, most worthless movie I ever had to pay for (rented the video). It's simply pointless to write a constructive critique for this piece of trash. Everything about this movie is executed so badly that I'm sure NO ONE watched the dailies after a day of shooting. It's beyond bad. The story of an astronaut who was infected by a alien "virus" he got on Mars and starts impregnating as many women as possible upon his return to earth, with the women becoming instantly pregnant and exploding in buckets of gore as they give birth to the alien offsprings is, well, unpleasant to say the least. Had the film's approach been different (like a Peter Jackson gore comedies) then maybe the film might have been passable but as it is now, it's pure schlocky by-the-numbers exploitation with no redeeming qualities, even in a "it's so bad it's good" way.
