So it's basically "Brave New World" by way of Cinemax. Gotta check this out! “This film sends a strong message about using technology and reconstructive surgery to make everything, boobies or soldiers, bigger and better.”

You reviewed the movie I submitted for the blogathon, by the way. I chose it before I realized there was a Part III in the works, though, if that makes it better. It probably doesn't. I think Luc's daughter was born before he was zombified. No, wait, that doesn't make sense, as he was originally killed in Vietnam. You know, I've actually seen both the original and this sequel and I don't have a single answer to the questions that trouble our minds. Ah, that was terrific.

I remember seeing the original in the theater and thinking it was quite "bitchin'" -- okay so I was only in 7th grade or so, but still... The only thing I remember about "The Return" is that it had wrestling superstar Bill Goldberg in it. He even got to use some of his wrestling moves on some of the extras. Anyway, these are truly awful (which means wonderfully entertaining in my book) films. Great review. Great review.
