Plot

Having just returned from a mission to Mars, Commander Ross isn't exactly himself. He's slowly becoming a terrifying alien entity with one goal -- to procreate with human women!

Sinekatalog’s take

A lurid, mindless sequel about an astronaut returning home as something predatory. The creature effects are goofy and the plot is a pile of cliches, though it occasionally embraces its own trashiness. Only for completists of cheap sci-fi horror.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
