Alien 2 gets off to a slow start as we are greeted with a whole mess of stock footage. This footage is used to set up a space module plummeting back to Earth, and we are meant to believe this is the source of the alien threat (and presumably from the Nostromo if one is to actually believe this is a sequel to Alien despite it being set hundreds of years in the future). In any case the scene shifts to a couple as they take a leisurely drive from their home to a TV studio (set in a movie theater), where the actress apparently forgets her lines (otherwise we are meant to believe she has visions of monsters).
The woman and her boyfriend head to the river to meet a man on a boat before ultimately meeting up with the rest of their team at a bowling alley (yes, a bowling alley). Oh yes, I forgot to mention, they are cave diving scientists about to head into the deep. On the way to the cave they stop and find a mysterious looking rock, so naturally they put it in their bag and carry on.
Do you see where this is going? If you said "an alien attack on the group once in the cave from something in the rock," you'd be right. The attacks lead to some decent gore effects and a continued lack of genuine suspense or an actual script. The leaps of logic, or lack thereof, are mind boggling. I mean, they are scientists, right? If you remember that fact, pair it with their reaction after the realization of the alien attack. It makes no sense. Then there is the final moments of the film that prove they either ran out of money or just had no idea how to end it.
The acting is poor, the suspense is nonexistent, the screenplay appears made up on the spot, and the movie is awfully cheap looking. All of this sounds like reasons to avoid a movie. Most people probably should, but for those of you who are more like me, have at it. I found a lot to like, from the use of the stock footage to the crazy dialogue, from the blood to the alien anus-vision during the return to the bowling alley, from the poor performances to the weird use of music, the movie worked it's terrible charm on me.

It is a well known fact that the satanic global cult of Illuminati are pushing for a false flag alien invasion, and this has been known for well over 60 years.
Now in an infinite universe, why the hell would anyone invade our tiny spinning poo ?.
Only someone with the xenophobic mind set of a control freak, an illuminati member would be so paranoid and so small minded that they really think anyone would believe this and would actually try and carry out a false flag alien invasion.
Why would anyone invade our spinning poo when we are already here, because it is also known that we live in all forms and Humanity is the form of Earth.
Such mind sets are convinced they are more intelligent than the rest of the world when in fact they are not only stupid to unparalleled psychotic levels, but they have negative intelligence, because it takes an extra positive to create life and anything opposite to this is to go against the very force that sustains life, the very fields that retain current within a body, the very forces that reduce when you are away from the planet, Human will.
To not even understand the basic principle of what you are and what sustains you goes beyond xenophobia and stupidity, because even devil worshipers need the positively charged fields created by a planet to live, I'm guessing even the works of Dr Emoto would be lost on them.
And to alter the people here would be to degrade that force, and therefore degrade the fracal propergating forces that make up this part of the galaxy, because it takes 'many colors' to create light, so altering or removing 'a given spectrum' is also against the very forces those that you need to live!.
How can such people poke fun at the retarded when the retarded have so much more Joy than they do making them understand this very basic principle to a Yoda like degree in comparason.
And yes, people should be offended that I made that comparison because we all know deep down inside what I'm talking about when I point my finger at the likes of the NAZI party and the Illuminati, people with retardation deserve much better than to be compared to the likes of those who we can't deem as members of the Human race.
I think it is high time we added 'negative' intelligence to IQ tests so we can weed out such people.
