Sometimes They Come Back... for More

Inspired by a story from Stephen King but having very little to do with it just the same, "Sometimes They Come Back... For More" ensures you probably won't be coming back for more any time soon. The third installment in the increasingly absurdly-titled and logically-flawed "Sometimes They Come Back For More" series, "...For More" finds two soldiers crash-landing on a remote base in Antarctica on a mission to investigate some rather strange occurrences. See, it appears that somebody gave a group of amateur film-makers a little bit of cash and a license to leave their mark on a vaguely recognizable franchise.

"Sometimes They Come Back ...For More" is about as bland as direct- to-video horror gets, especially late '90s DTV fare. When most of your talent lies at the feet of Corky from TV's "Murphy Brown," you know you're in dire straits. And while the thinly-veiled attempt at ripping off John Carpenter's "The Thing" should at least make for a mildly interesting watch, the film-makers lack the skill or the means necessary to squeeze any tension or dread out of the situation. However, if you consider boredom a form of horror, then prepare to be scared out of your skin!

Really, if not for the fact that this film carries a somewhat familiar title, it would never have seen the light of day, let alone been made. While there is a remotely interesting twist towards the end of the film, its execution is so clumsy, it bottoms out long before the credits mercifully roll out. "Sometimes They Come Back ...For More." But you won't. And unsurprisingly, a fourth film has yet to be produced in this franchise.

"Sometimes They Come Back...for More" is a fairly routine and forgettable horror film that offers literally nothing new.The first half is actually interesting,but after it the film goes quickly downhill.Two military officers(played by Clayton Rohner and Chase Masterson)set out to investigate a remote Antarctica based governmental outpost where a mysterious occurrence has killed crew members.The only survivors are a medical officer(Faith Ford)and a tech officer(Max Perlich).Before long,the bodies are discovered all over the place."Sometimes They Come Back...for More" has nothing to do with Stephen King's short story.The plot tries hard to surprise,but all its twists are pretty silly.There is only a little bit of suspense and gore,so I was disappointed.Give it a look,only if you want to see every horror film.4 out of 10.

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.

Great concept, poorly executed. Anything that has to do with Anctartica is going to be very interesting and even more when Horror is mixed on.

The problem with "Sometimes They Come Back...for More" is that it falls downhill terribly after a cool beginning, typical for quality B-movie standards.

The action is quite good at first but then , towards the ending, it looks like a cheap footage from typical direct to video mediocrity.

Also, the movie gets pretty boring because of the lack of action and excessive useless dialogs.

The best thing about it is the acting. Solid performances by Faith Ford and Clayton Rohner. They took seriously their cheesy role. Great concept, poorly executed.

Anyways, if you have hunger for a regular tending to bad B-movie, watch this one and you will probably will be satisfied. But in my opinion, a movie with such good potential ended as a mediocre B-movie that is only one of the bunch.

Set design, script and casting were all thrown to the wind, as this film's already meager budget seems to be spent mostly on getting Faith Ford, the only talent to be found associated with it. An apparent remake of The Thing only becomes more pathetic when the filmmakers decided to completely avoid any similarities between the two with the exception of location. The complete lack of any sort of scientific advising, devolution to the most basic of storylines and motivations, can only leave one curious who let this one through any sort of filter system to reach its underwhelmed audience. This one makes a Troma movie look like a masterpiece.
