awful. this 'sequel' to the first wretched installment, Fugitive Alien, is much worse than the first. For one thing, it is ten times more boring. At least Fugitive Alien is high on the cheese factor, including one of the Japanese crew wearing a jumpsuit with a tag that read Security Guard on the lapel, and of course the 'cabin presser' sign. the girl in the blonde wig, the stupid plastic jumpsuits that the Baccus 3 crew all wore(and pink and white, at that!)The Rainbrow Brite costumes and blonde 'helmet wigs' that the supposedly fearsome Star Wolves wore-all hysterical. But the blonde chick is dead, the plastic jumpsuits disappear in the first half of the movie, and the addled and frankly boring plot do not keep you on the edge of your seat. The thirty minutes or so that Ken spends trying to fix the engines so that the ship will not be dragged into a sun about to go nova are thirty minutes of my life that I'll never see again. The only funny part was the signs on the instrument panel that read Sunny Side and Other Side, respectively. Those left me howling with laughter. Nothing is resolved in the plot, especially at the end where Ken finishes off the Kabuki actor who's been acting as the dictator of Valnastar. It was wise of him to ditch that little twit Tammy and use the planet's needing his help to get the hell away from Star Force, but it was still a bit of a head-scratcher, plot wise. And the long part in between where they blew up that shiny toy that was supposed to be a super weapon(a plot point they immediately recycled in the next bit)was just unbelievably tedious and boring. I'll watch Fugitive Alien anytime, but I'll be slower to watch this creaky 'sequel'. Snooze-fest, all around. Gee, I wonder why they didn't make Fugitive Alien III?

Star Force: Fugitive Alien II tries to build on the Fugitive Alien series, but with the name Sandy Frank on it, you can be assured it stinks. Ken and the gang are back, but we wish they weren't. This time out, the Star Force has to contend with a sun about to go nova while the ship's engines break down. After that, Ken assaults a very silly-looking fort with the Star Force, and ends up going home again. Bad acting, bad plotline, and bad dubbing abound here. Exactly what you'd expect from a Sandy Frank import.Avoid this one unless you're watching the MST3K version.

This builds upon the great epic of Fugitive Alien. Don't worry if you missed the first and consider yourself lucky!Captain Joe, Ken and the pals on the Baccus 3 are on a collision course with wackiness. Can the captured prisoner be trusted? What did Rocky eat for dinner? Will Capt. Joe abstain from drinking again? And what of Tammy's love for Ken? Lots of stuff happens. I thought the character development was better here since Rocky's "I don't like Ken" attitude is stronger than ever. Things get resolved, but Sandy Frank edits the whole thing and Ken ends up trying to liberate his home planet! I'm probably alone, but I wish this series went on!Sandy Frank.....Sandy Frank....

This is a bad film.Heh, of course that made for one of the best MSTings in the history of MST3K.The one thing that this movie has going for it is the groovy music..everything else was terribly bad, incredibly funny.. but I bet unintentionally so ;)Kill me with a forklift.
