Star Worms II: Attack of the Pleasure Pods is a curious piece from 1985 that sinks its teeth into the sci-fi genre with a unique blend of camp and grit. The atmosphere is thick with tension as Jessup, hiding his identity, navigates the grim realities of the Star Prison. The pacing fluctuates between moments of frenetic action and bleak, desolate landscapes.
