Plot:
Sam (Tyler Johnston), a college student in a small Northwestern town, reluctantly joins his roommates in a “juvenile” contest to see who can hook up with the most gorgeous co-eds by the end of the semester.
However, when young men slowly start disappearing around town, Sam and his friends learn that when it comes to beautiful women, it’s what’s inside that really matters…
Reviews:
“Mercilessly recycling the plot of the first film while stripping out almost all of the Cronenbergian allusions, it becomes obvious that this sequel is entirely superfluous […] This time, however, the erotic imagery is toned down significantly, replaced by a far more misogynistic viewpoint.” Canuxploitation!
“Decoys: The Second Seduction is a fair B-movie. It hums along and didn’t make me want to hurl myself over the balcony after watching it. It needed some more naked aliens to make it a B-movie you could be proud of but as it is, it’s just passable entertainment.” Dr Gore’s Movie Reviews
“Keeping Decoys 2 from being a complete and total loss were popups in the cast by Tobin Bell as a Biology professor and Dina Meyer as Luke’s therapist […] Decoys 2 had fewer laughs, fewer scares, fewer hotties and was crappier in every way to a movie that wasn’t very good to begin with.” Film Critics United
“Effects aren’t top-notch, there are more than one or two gaping plot holes and there’s no tension whatsoever. Pretty much like the first movie anyway […] An uncomplicated sequel that will be appreciated by those who saw the greatness at the core of the rough diamond that was the first movie.” For It Is Man’s Number
” …none of the acting is impressive even when you get Tobin Bell cropping up in a handful of scenes. Decoys 2: Alien Seduction will entertain a certain type of audience, the teenage horror fan who still focuses on the simple pleasures. But for more seasoned horror fans it offers up very little…” The Movie Scene
“Screenwriter Miguel Tejada-Flores’ emphasis on the American Pie-esque shenanigans of the central characters becomes tiresome almost immediately, and there’s just no overlooking the feeling that the film’s more horrific elements have been grudgingly thrown in as an afterthought.” Reel Film Reviews
“ …it’s an agreeable mix of goofy humour, a likeable cast of characters and a few moments of low-scale alien attacks (the mix of practical and CG effects could’ve been better but they’re still okay). In fact, a lot of the movie’s entertainment value comes from its good-natured mix of T&A comedy with a side of sci-fi.” The Video Graveyard
Choice dialogue:

“I think we should split up.”
“This place gives me the creeps.”
