Haven seen and reviewed the first two films in the "sometimes" series, the watchable but just all right first & the abysmal second, I thought I might as well see this and get the series over with. I mean it couldn't be any worse than "Sometime They Come Back Again" right?? Right??!!?

Two members of the military police go up to an article base to investigate some mysterious happenings. Upon arriving they find only two live bodies amongst several dead ones. Horribly acted, no suspense, hopelessly derivative, and has nothing to do with the first two films. Going into the movie I thought that it couldn't be any worse than the previous film, but I was wrong. VERY wrong.

Right, well the first "Sometimes They Come Back" was an abysmal train wreck for sure, but still I had the chance to get to sit down and watch the 1998 "Sometimes They Come Back... for More" movie, and I did so, even after cringing through the first movie.

So what were they thinking here? Because it felt like 'let's make a copy of "The Thing" except we leave out all the special effects and all the scary parts'. That was definitely what "Sometimes They Come Back... for More" felt like. It was a monstrous ordeal to sit through.

Not only was the story incredibly slow paced and uneventful, but it was also frighteningly boring and pointless. I must admit that I gave up on "Sometimes They Come Back... for More" about halfway through. I just couldn't take more of the punishment that is this movie.

The only upside to this movie was the fact that a young Faith Ford appeared in the movie, which seemed like a very atypical movie for her to have an acting role in.

Oddly enough I never watched it back in the late 1990s when it was initially released. But now that I have had the chance to watch it, I can honestly say that t his movie is bad. If you enjoy a good horror movie and prefer a movie with a proper script and storyline, stay well clear of "Sometimes They Come Back... for More".

There are a few good unsettling moments to enliven this otherwise uninspired horror yarn, which at least is better than the first film in this series, SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK (I haven't seen the first sequel, so I can't comment). The main flaws of this film are the fact that it's clichéd, lame, and also that it manages to rip off a few well-known horror flicks in the process. I also could have done without the confusing sub-plot involving demonic half brothers, which is unclear towards the end and which leaves you guessing who is actually who. However, the main bulk of the film - survivors in a remote Antarctic station battle undead hordes - is done competently enough and there are a number of impressive scenes, despite the obviously low budget of the production.

I could talk endlessly about the flaws which hinder this film. The acting is poor all round, from the cast of unknowns whose biggest success has probably been in television series. The music is forgettable and the many inspirations are clear. The remote frozen setting has been done to death in THE THING and, more recently, the X-FILES episode Ice. The scenes of the zombie hordes smashing through doors and windows are directly lifted from NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. The special effects are used sparingly, mainly in the shape of black contact lenses for the demons. That's about it.

While mainly laughable, the film does manage to build some suspense from the claustrophobic location, and the scene where the crawler is driven through the underground tunnels while the survivors watch on a television screen is pretty eerie - an interesting precursor to later moments in THE HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL remake and THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT which expanded on this "reality boost". In fact the film works best when concentrating on the suspense and dialogue between the characters instead of the action scenes which will no doubt disappoint.
