Four months have passed since the Visitors first arrived on Earth. They manipulate world opinion in their favor and are determined to eradicate the resistance.
A year after Liberation Day, courtesy of the red-dust bacteria, the humanoid, lizard-like aliens develop a resistance to the micro-organism and try to regain control of the Earth--only now some humans are knowingly working with them.
An extraterrestrial race arrives on Earth with seemingly good intentions, only to slowly reveal their true machinations the more ingrained into society they become.

The Battle begun in the Miniseries 'V' continues. The war is told from the view point of the resistance group based in Los Angeles, CA as they struggle to find weaknesses of the aliens they can exploit. In addition, not all the aliens feel their invasion was right, and also work to stop the war.Written by

Kenneth Johnson, the creator of the original V (1983) miniseries, supervised the writing of the sequel, but left Warner Brothers Television over creative differences before it was produced. His scriptwriting contribution is credited under the pseudonym Lillian Weezer. See more »

The Visitors' vulnerability to firearms seems to be tied to the needs of story, rather than anything substantial. SOmetimes firearms work on them; other times; they don't. See more »
While other folks were knee-deep in Star Wars and Star Trek, this was the movie that mesmerized me. The world taken over by Alien Nazis, pretty inventive. Looking back, it is obvious that this is a very high quality production not the ordinary made for TV drivel. With a great concept and terrific acting by Marc Singer, Faye Grant, and Michael Ironside, interest is held throughout the full 10 hours. Except for the phony ending, the entire saga is great. Special effects were also state of the art then. When I compare the laser blasts in Star Wars with V FB, no contest. V rules. PLEASE PUT THIS ON DVD.
