I don't know why these aliens with lizard like skin and speak in double tongues return to disturb us humans who had enough of them before. They want our water and food which is humans. In this series, there is a birth of twins between humans and lizards. The boy born has lizard skin and human insides while the girl born and named Elizabeth has lizard insides and human outsides. The humans have found something to repel the lizard aliens out of earth for once and for all until the series. I remember this series quite well as a child and it was quite extraordinary seeing humans of all walks of life unite to save their earth and their mere existence. It would be nice to have that unity in today's world. Of course, Jane Badler's Diana is the most memorable character as the female leader (rare in television) of the alien home ship headquartered in Los Angeles. Her performance is not only sensual but terrifying as well.

After seeing this crap I just could not hold myself from vomiting. My mind couldn't continue to accept and defy reason. A bunch of soccer moms, a crack head, a gardener, a tight jeans cameraman and a few nerdy scientists battle against the intergalactic equivalent of the US navy seals or the German waffen SS and win every time? Suddenly regular people know how to shoot rocket launchers and machine guns with hawk eye precision? And that blondie Sylvia Saint look alike ( she's very hot btw ) is the most unlikely leader I've ever seen. How the hell did Barbie got chosen to be the resistance leader? The resistance seems to pick their camps with gorgeous views behind, sometimes it gets so cheesy it seems you are watching an afternoon soap opera.C'on Now, on to the invaders. How can they be so stupid? They are far too technologically advanced and superior to us and apparently they haven't discovered recycling nor farming nor animal domestication to feed their starving people on their home planet? Oh and here's the SUPER secret formula for water invaders: H 20! Plus they are the wimpiest fascists since the Italians in WW 2, they can't seem to plan or execute anything right. Everything they plan goes wrong all the time. And let's not talk about security, one pass apparently opens every door in the mother ship.... or perhaps they don't even bother to lock the doors or update their security codes up there.V: the final battle gets more unbelievably stupid as it goes on. By the time this crap is about to end you'd expect the Ewoks or ALF to show up anytime soon. Diana continues to be super hot even with those terrible 80's hair styles and I guess there was no teeth whitening in the 80's. Many in that cast really needed one.Very disappointing. You can see why creator Kenneth Johnson wants to scrap the whole thing. Great television turned into sappy sentiment. The Visitors come across as imbeciles rather than ruthless villains. The resistance as a gang of klutzes, I really hated the part where they resorted to germ warfare. Nobody raised a moral objection to it. Really sad. And the Visitors can't cure the red dust, stupid. Really lame. Maybe next time they'll get V right.

"V:The Final Battle really does show that follow ups are really great.the cast of "V" return in this great follow up.The war with the Visitor has heated up,the resistance is getting beat some but really fight back with the help of the Fifth Column,led by Martin.Robin gives birth to a half human,half Visitor baby,which she names Elizabeth.Elizabeth is the hope for all.I like the fate of Daniel Bernstein got set up by the resistance.Daniel will be on a serving platter for what happened to Brian,that is Daniel's punishment by the Visitor,Steven,played by Andrew Prine(Amityville II:The Possession).The resistance set him up after he killed Ruby,a lady Daniel knew growing up.Michael Ironside(Spacehunter:The Adventures In The Forbidden Zone,SeaQuest 2032,and Total Recall)as Ham Tyler is a wonderful addition to the "V" franchise.Michael Ironside plays the roll of Ham Tyler really well.Mickey Jones(Savage Dawn,Total Recall,and National Lampoon's Vacation)is another,he plays Ham Tyler's associate,Chris Faber,Denise Galik-Furey as Maggie Blodgett,This follow up to "V" really did real well,I liked it when I saw it when it came out in 1984,and "V" The Series after.Kenneth Johnson did a great job creating this show and shows like "The Incredible Hulk" and "Alien Nation".I give "V:The Final Battle" 2 thumbs up and 10/10 stars.

This was a marvelous follow-up to one of the best TV mini series of all time. Most of the original cast returns, and the human team led by Marc Singer and Faye Grant lead their squad against the Visitors intent on world domination. Michael Ironside's character was a perfect addition to the cast, as he provides the arrogant tough-guy role the good guys needed. If you liked the first one, you'll love this one. I guarantee it. You will never forget the childbirth scene in this film.*** out of ****
