Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
The original "Decoys" was an absolutely terrible movie, which is probably why its Canadian distributor only gave it a half-hearted theatrical release. But it must have made money somewhere down the line, because here we have this sequel, and it's just as bad as the original. This is a really cheap enterprise - it's shoddily filmed, has tacky sets, and the alien effects (both in CGI and non-CGI) look like there was hardly any money to spend. The acting is really appalling, with not one actor managing to be the least sympathetic. Though part of that is due to the script, which creates really brain-dead characters in a story that is barely there. If you are thinking of tuning in anyway for sex and nudity, be warned, because there is no sex and only a few seconds of nudity. Just before the closing credits, we are told, "The End maybe". How I hope that this is truly the end and there won't be a "Decoys 3"!
According to the IMDb rating, this would be one of the few cases, that the sequel is better than the original ... ;o) Seriously though, don't let the voting irritate you. And while there are characters here that are familiar (ie. from the first Decoys movie, which I'm guessing you have seen, if you show interest in the second part), it seems to be even more irrational (in it's own world) than the first one. But again, this shouldn't hinder your "experience" (unless your expectations are thrived upon the explanation of the "R"-rating, which would lead to a false picture of the movie).While the first one had an "impactful" ending (with a somewhat crazy twist), this tries to build upon that. Plus it adds a few "Star" faces. But neither Dina Mayer nor Tobin Bell (especially the latter of Saw fame), can really flesh out their roles ... because there is nothing to flesh out. It's almost a wasted opportunity, where the movie could've not only drawn the attention of the viewer, with big names, but also score with them.
i have to admit i watched this just for the hott chicks and boy was i not disappointed, seemed like every guys fantasy chick including mine was in this movie. not having seen the original i didn't know what to expect except for the hot chicks,, i was surprised to see Tobin Bell,, Jigsaw from Saw in this,, he was a college professor in this.. apparently the alien chicks are defly afraid of heat,, they like the cold, so they wanna get the guys out in the cold weather to do it,, one guy is cold so he turns on a heater and the girl gets a bad burn from it,,apparently the only way you can tell if the girl is an alien is the fact that they have no belly button,, the guys at the college are in a race to see how many alien chicks they can score.. not a bad movie,, there is actually a plot in there if you look hard enough.
Luke (Corey Sevier) survived from the alien attack, which his previous girlfriend was a alien the whole time. Now Luke is hoping to get his life back in track, while he sees a psychiatrist (Dina Meyer) for the moment and as well trying to finish his college education. Now a group of horny college students (Tyler Johnston, Reamonn Joshee, Ryan Ash, Brad Goddard and Sam Easton) are setting a game between of rating female college students, seeing which student is hot and which one of the five guys will get laid first as well. Now two new college female students are living in the campus, which these two attractive ladies (Michelle Molineux, Lindsay Maxwell) are Aliens. Which they are here in earth to seduced humans from extinction. When Luke has a feeling that not everything in safe in the campus and he sees one of the aliens he remembers from his past. Her name is Constance (Kim Poirier) and she's pretending to be a doctor. While her two female aliens are trying to save their species from seducing every student or adult in sight. Now Luke and these horny colleagues have a chance to stop this race before they take over the world.Directed by Jeffery Scott Lando (Savage Island) made an lively sequel to the silly Original. Which the original was a fun knock-off to "Species" and since then, it has an cult following. Sevier and Poirier are back from the original. The new cast members in the sequel are fun to watch including Kaillin See as Stephanie (Who resembles of the actress "Rosemund Pike") and Tobin Bell from the "Saw Series" as a college professor.DVD has an good anamorphic Widescreen (1.85:1) transfer and an clear sounding Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. DVD's only extras are previews from other movies. Special effects seems to be improvement over the original but the original film was more kinkier and sadly (Beautiful and Sexy) Poirier keeps her clothes on this time. There's a few gratuitous nudity in this but not as much. Still, this goofy Canadian B Movie is certainly fun to watch and there's a set-up for a possible third movie at the end. It's a pleasant dumb B Movie with the cast & crew members certainly had a lot of fun making this picture. Also it is better than the "Species" Sequels any day. (*** ½/*****).
