DECOYS 2: ALIEN SEDUCTION

In a college in a small town in the northwestern United States, Sam and his two roommates organize a tournament to see who will succeed in sleeping with the most girls possible in the next five days. But the news spreads and the tournament expands among all the boys in the school… a game for boys who find very willing blondes with great ease! In reality, the blonde student girls who give themselves up are repulsive and lethal aliens who have come to Earth to mate with human males and ensure the continuity of their endangered species. Only the arrival of Luke Callahan, who has already faced the aliens before, will warn the unaware students. The sexy and lethal aliens we had already learned to love and fear in "Decoys" return, a small Canadian film that parodied the "Species" saga, but in a teen key. For the home video market only, "Decoys 2 – Alien Seduction" is produced in 2007, a sequel that attempts to reproduce the same situation as the previous film, while directly linking to the events narrated in the prequel. Two of the main characters from the first film will return: Luke Callahan (always played by Corey Sevier), previously a shy student facing the alien threat and now a new assistant to the biology professor, ready to eradicate the threat again; and Constance (also played again by Kim Poirier), an alien believed dead in the first chapter, but now in the guise of an attractive doctor ready to lead the new team of extraterrestrials with stunning curves. It must be said that "Decoys 2" is inferior to the first fun chapter, since the story is known and no relevant elements are added to those already shown in the first film (the only novelty is the possibility for the aliens to adapt their look to the victims' fantasies) and the pace becomes a bit slower and redundant. Moreover, the gory and sexy scenes decrease drastically and inexplicably —we are in a sequel!— as well as the murdered deaths. It is interesting to note, however, how the new aliens have been conceived and realized as "Stepford wives", that is, blonde and cold sex dolls devoid of any feeling, just as it had been staged in Bryan Forbes' film (titled "The Stepford Wives" in Italy). Despite the obvious limits, "Decoys 2" is certainly superior to the vast majority of products destined for the home video market only and will not fail to make you pass ninety carefree minutes. In the role of the biology professor, we find the familiar face of Tobin Bell (Jigsaw of the "Saw" saga), while in the role of the school psychologist is Diana Meyer, another familiar face to viewers of the "Saw" saga (she is the police officer Kerry who appears in the three films of the saga). In conclusion, "Decoys 2" is a dignified direct-to-dvd that does not have the liveliness of the first film and trivializes some of its characteristics, but it still manages to entertain with a somewhat not entirely despicable mannered show. A third chapter is foreseen.
