Charlie (George "Norm" Wendt) and Rhonda ("Just Say" Julie Brown) are a pair of cheerful, murderous aliens who become stranded on Earth and stumble upon a tiny western town. They become deputy sheriffs and dish out a deadly form of justice to speeders, murderers and others, while getting on the bad side of some of locals (led by Wayne Grace). Meanwhile, their sexy alien daughter (Anastasia Sakelaris) arrives in a skimpy/shiny outfit with her black human husband (Christopher M. Brown) to find them and TV reporters and government agents turn up to fill up time.
From what I can tell, this is a deliberate attempt to cover every possible genre (comedy, sci-fi, horror, western...) in one movie, and what a stupid, unfunny mess it is, despite energetic acting from the two stars. The script is downright atrocious.

Caught this one on cable. Sometimes you start watching these movies you've never heard of and you cross your fingers and hope for the best. More often that not, you're let down. This one starts slow, is a mishmash of genres, but if you stick to it you'll realize that the film makers made this one with tongue firmly in cheek, and it's hilarious. Julie Brown and George Wendt give charming, scenery chewing performances as vigilante aliens who become sheriffs of a small western town. It's not too often you can see a German foreign exchange student getting his rocks off while spying on a black guy having sex with an alien in the same movie where a hillbilly is torn limb from limb between two cop cars as punishment for driving drunk. There's a sense of playfulness and over the top twisted humor that's been absent from feature films since the heyday of Monty Python.
Alien Avengers II is a pretty funny sequel. It follows right after the first movie. Shanna Reed does not play Rhonda in this movie though. We get Julie Brown instead. She's pretty funny too, but I think Shanna was slightly better as Rhonda. The rest of the cast is all back in the sequel. You've got Daphne, Charlie, and Joseph all returning. Daphne and Joseph search for her parents. Meanwhile Charlie and Rhonda find a little town and have some fun. Alien Avengers II is a fun comedy, but no where near as hilarious as the first movie. It's worth seeing, but don't kill yourself trying to find a copy. Charlie is still laugh out loud funny, that guy cracks me up.
I give these funny aliens a 8/10

After watching the first installment of this series and watching the second one, This is great late night drivel. George Wendt ( Norm from Cheers ) and Julie Brown ( Clueless) do a great job with a less than good script and add laughs. A great line in the movie is when at the campsite the people Daphine and Joseph are about to go to bed the foreign exchange student states " he wants to stick in her butter " or something to that extent. Plus add in the drunk judge and the really bad, bad guy played by Wayne Grace with fake aliens trying to buy the whole town to put a casino and resort in.. just great. If you are looking for a good B - rated film, late at night .. good stuff.
Weird, wacky and wild fun! Laugh out loud performances from George Wendt and Julie Brown in this sci-fi, dark comedy, western hybrid. (Leave it to Roger Corman!) I¹m a big fan of the b-film. And this is a shining example. We¹ve got aliens, blood, boobs, explosions, torture, sex, social satire and a ton of comedy (actually intentional!) Dave Payne seems to understand what type of film he¹s making and stays dead on track with the tone. The shoot out in the finale is a crafty take on every great western street show down. The witty camera work and ricochet action owes a lot to Sam Raimi¹s ³Quick and the Dead,² but director Dave Payne makes this movie his own. Michael McDonald (lately of Mad TV) wrote this sleeper hit.
