Oblivion

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!

"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

Intro begins with a bad scene from the first part, the introduction is monotonous and too long. Bad acting, incredibly bad, throughout the film the physical behavior (movements, gestures) of most actors are simply not in sync with the situation happening around them (if it weren't so sad it would be funny). Special effects in general the visual impression is bad, and at the time when is shoot it could have been done immeasurably better. Surely this is not the movie that you draw from the past and he delight you!

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...

Long time forgotten movie on my local Blockbuster. Heck, since the mid 90's this movie has been on the Horror shelf and sadly, as far as I know, nobody ever rented it.

I refused to rent it until I watched every single Horror movie on the shelf. Some were utter crap, some were decent. The time for "Backlash 2" came and boy, I regret for not renting it before!

I haven't seen the original "Oblivion" but this sequel is entertaining as hell and perfectly displays clichès from Western movies but in Full Moon's strange perspective. Yes, there's lot of futuristic action in the West. Some cheesy weapons but still impressive.

The acting is also weird but likable. A bunch of cowboys in the style of Metal Gear.

There's minimal Horror in this movie but still it should please a conventional Horror fan.

Musetta Vander (Queen Sindel from the second Mortal Kombat movie) is hilarious and very sexy! Extremely sexy I'd say. The story is entertaining and might keep you wondering "what the hell is going on?".

Give it a try if you are into Full Moon's campy sense of movie making.
