Based on the 1988
film Alien Nation, this is the first spin off film from the 1989 TV series that
followed the original film. Starring the cast of the TV series this is a made
for TV film that came after the TV Series failed to get past the first season.
This film follows
Aponso an Alien slave master who comes to Earth tracking the Newcomers who
have made Earth their home and his plan is to bring them all back and to also enslave the humans. This film follows directly from the
end of the TV series and comes from a time when if a TV series was not to be
continued then they might try something else if they feel it was a good
original idea. I have to say that my connection to these films stems from the
original film and I really liked the idea. watching these films you have to
have some knowledge as they do presume you know what is happening right from
the start.
This film is an
enjoyable continuation and a cheap sequel, the acting is fine and the story is
interesting enough and it helps you explore an interesting world that I look
forward to seeing more of. The characters are interesting and well rounded this
will be due to the actors having played then for a full year. This is a 3 star
film worth seeing if you have had any contact with the series.
