Oblivion 2: Backlash (1996) is a Full Moon Features movie that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline picks up where the last film left off in the same mid western town on another planet filled with aliens and outlaws. When a woman on the run from the law arrives on the planet she is followed closely by a bounty hunter who enlists the help of the sheriff to bring her in. The task will be more daunting than it sounds.

This movie is directed by Sam Irvin (Gods and Monsters) and stars Richard Joseph Paul (Vampirella), Jackie Swanson (Lethal Weapon), Andrew Divoff (Wishmaster), Meg Foster (They Live), Isaac Hayes (Escape from New York), George Takei (Star Trek) and Carel Struycken (The Addams Family).

They did a really good job bringing so many of the original cast back. Takei, Hayes and Struycken are really great side characters who are the glue that keep the film together. Miss Kitty's Bar is always fun, the attire is unique and well selected and the action scenes are entertaining. The dialogue is very comic book like and light hearted. The CGI is fairly mediocre and the claymation ending was just okay.

Overall this is a fun movie that's about equal to the first film. I would call this an above average picture that I would score a 6/10 and recommend seeing once.
