Hess says she feels Annihilation will outdo the first Mortal Kombat movie in every way. There will be many more special effects and they have a different fighting coordinator. One of my more spectacular fights lasted about two minutes. In the first Mortal Kombat, the maximum a fight lasted was about 20 seconds. My fight lasts two minutes.
Annihilation picks up where the first film left off.
But, just as they rejoice in the victory, the portals leading to Outworld are ripped asunder, and a giant figure with the face of Death declares that the battle has just begun. Not only has Shao-Kuhn, the feared Emperor of Outworld, broken the sacred rules of Mortal Kombat, but this time he is coming in person with this extermination squads to conquer and eliminate anything that stands in his way. Even the Elder Gods can't stop him, and the warriors will have to defend the planet. Shao-Kahn is played by Brian Thompson. The film was written by Brent V. Friedman and Bryce Zabel from a story by Kasanoff, Joshua Wexler and John Tobias.
