The sequel to Scared to Death, Syngenor takes the monster from that movie but nothing else. Norton Cyberdyne developed the syngenor project to create a perfect soldier. When a conniving board member schemes to take over the company, she lets loose the creature to wreak havoc, killing its creator in the process. The scientist's niece (Starr Andreef) escapes the attack and with the help of a reporter (Mitchell Laurance), she sneaks into the company to find the truth. The script is an absolute disaster and the acting laughable but it all adds up to a so-bad-its-good sort of mess. David Gale delivers a fantastically over-the-top performance as the head of Norton Cyberdyne who gets more and more insane as each scene passes, injecting an unexplained bright green liquid into his neck throughout the movie as an apparent reference to his character from Re-Animator. There are also these fantastically horrible uniforms that the company's paramilitary troops wear that look like something out of a 1960's James Bond movie: bright blue work suits with metal shoulder guards and mining helmets! I kid you not. Co-starring Jeff Doucette and Lewis Arquette, father of David, Rosanna, Patricia and Alexis Arquette. Watch a trailer below or the whole movie here.
