Trailer Synopsis Cast

In the alien-western world of Oblivion, a suave, yet lethal bounty hunter named Sweeney arrives to arrest the seductive outlaw Lash on multiple charges, including murder. Lash, who just "inherited" a mine of Derconium (the most valuable mineral in the universe) from Crowley in a game of cards, meets up with Redeye's brother, Jaggar, who wants the mine for himself to rule the galaxy. It's a fight over Lash between the sheriff of Oblivion, Jaggar, and Sweeney. But who will emerge victorious?

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

"Oblivion 2 Backlash" will never be mistaken for a good movie, yet there are obvious improvements over "Oblivion #1". First, the film moves along at a tolerable pace, as opposed to #1 which often dragged. Second, there are attempts at "black humor" in #2, some of which actually succeed. Third, more Musetta Vander, who is by far the most interesting character. Fourth, the cheesy cavern scenes are laughable, with the camera shaking to simulate a giant turtle emerging from his long buried hibernation. In summary, this movie can be enjoyed without even having seen the first "Oblivion", and is quite frankly better. Sort of the "cream of the crap." - MERK

The wild desert planet of Oblivion, bounty hunter Sweeny is search for a saboteur and all hell breaks out in town when the mark strikes a deal to control the mining of Derconium.Backlash, is padded with a lengthy title sequence and a seven-minute round up of the FullMoon original Oblivion but still crams in plenty of what looks like made for TV action, as the Lash (Musetta Vander) joins with Jaggar (again Andrew Divoff) evil twin of reptilian Redeye.There's a barrage of flimsy in-jokes (Star Trek's George Takei flashing the Vulcan greeting) Meg Foster, Julie Newmar, Isaac Hayes and the rest of the original cast return (as the films were conveniently shot back to back). There's a new addition Maxwell Caulfield as Sweeney but like its predecessor Vander steals the show.Director Sam Irvin delivers more campy Western, science fiction fun but you have to be a lover of B-films to enjoy.

This movie, quite frankly, rules. I happened upon it one day while channel-surfing and I can tell you that no movie has quite the effect of Oblivion 2: Backlash. It may not be a good idea to rent this movie, because it may not be able to earn the cost of the rental. However, it's the best movie to accidentally start watching when you don't know what in blazes it is. Yee-ha for Oblivion!

This sequel is better by far than the original "Oblivion." The humor is broader, the pace is faster, and most of the movie is handed over to the extremely luscious Musetta Vander, who camps it up outrageously as the evil Betty-Page-style villainess Lash. Like its predecessor, "Backlash" relies on the plot cliches of Western movies, updated with Full Moon-style science fiction trappings. Musetta Vander steals the show here, but mention must be made of Julie Newmar's dreadfully campy performance as Miss Kitty and George Takei's demented, drunken town doc. Once more Meg Foster does the best she can with virtually nothing, and once more the rest of the cast is pretty much negligible with the exception of Maxwell Caulfield as the dandyish monster bounty hunter Sweeney. In short, a fabulously bad movie, and Musetta Vander is absolutely delicious. She dominates (pun intended) this flick! I think I'm in love...
