Spike 2

Spike 2 is a 2000 science fiction horror film written and directed by Grant Wallen and Justin Waldridge. It is the sequel to the 1995 film Spike, and the second film in the Spike franchise. It stars Hampton David, Florita Dalrymple, and Denzell Sherod reprising their roles in the previous film, while new cast members include Chester Horsepool, Milton Travers, Nicolas Hally, Joane Pragnell, and Danny Twaddell. Set two weeks after the previous film, detectives Stanford Gullickson (David) and Maria Slune (Dalrymple) are requested by the government for assistance after the alien virus begins spreading throughout Jonathia. Like the last film, Spike 2 was produced by Harry Isherwood and Craig Poinsett through Abstract Entertainment, and distributed by Studio2.
Plans for a sequel to Spike began in December of 1995, and the film was announced in Feburary the following year. It was announced that the film would be directed by Grant Wallen alongside writer Justin Waldridge, marking the first and only time that a film in the Spike franchise was not directed by Bob Whittaker, who was taking time off at this time. Filming occurred around mid to late 1998.
Spike 2 premiered at the Bellfort Broadway Film Festival on January 14th, 2000, and was released globally on February 2nd, 2000. It received generally favourable reviews, particularly for it's screenplay and writing. The film was followed up by Spike Global in 2007.
