Mortal Kombat Annihilation
Mortal Kombat Annihilation is a 1997 American martial arts fantasy film based on the video game franchise Mortal Kombat. It is the second installment in the Mortal Kombat film series and a sequel to the 1995 film. Largely adapted from the 1995 video game Mortal Kombat 3, Annihilation follows Liu Kang and his allies as they attempt to prevent the malevolent Shao Kahn from conquering Earthrealm. Directed by John R. Leonetti, the film stars Robin Shou as Liu Kang, Talisa Soto as Kitana, James Remar as Rayden, Sandra Hess as Sonya Blade, Lynn “Red” Williams as Jax and Brian Thompson as Shao Kahn. Only Shou and Soto reprise their roles, with other characters from the previous film being recast.
Mortal Kombat Annihilation was theatrically released on November 21, 1997, by New Line Cinema. It received negative reviews and grossed $51.3 million on a $30 million budget. A direct sequel was consequently canceled and a third film languished in development hell for nearly two decades until the series was rebooted in 2021.
The Outworld emperor Shao Kahn opens a portal to Earthrealm and has resurrected Queen Sindel, Princess Kitana's long-deceased mother, to facilitate his invasion. Thunder god Rayden and Earthrealm warriors Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, and Johnny Cage try to defend themselves, but Kahn kills Cage. The Earthrealm warriors retreat to seek allies.
Shao Kahn sends his senior warriors to lead squads hunting down the remaining warriors. Kahn executes General Rain for defeating but not killing Kabal and Stryker, and promotes Sindel to General.
Sonya Blade finds and enlists the help of her Special Forces partner, Jax. Blade and Jax escape and defeat Cyrax, and later, Sonya defeats an ambush from Mileena.
Kitana and Liu search for a Native American shaman named Nightwolf, who seemingly knows the key to defeating Kahn. Before leaving the air tunnel caves Cyber Smoke attacks and is defeated with the assistance of Sub Zero, the Original's younger brother. Sub Zero was Cyber Smoke's original target until Shao Kahn reprogrammed Cyber Smoke to hunt Liu Kang and Kitana. Before Sub Zero can help them escape Scorpion appears, fights Sub Zero, and kidnaps Kitana when Liu Kang saves Sub Zero from falling into a lava river.
Rayden meets with the Elder Gods and asks them why Kahn was allowed to break the tournament rules and force his way into Earthrealm, and how he can be stopped. One says that reuniting Kitana with her mother, Sindel, is the key to breaking Kahn's hold on Earthrealm, but another Elder God insists that the defeat of Kahn himself is the solution. Rayden is then asked by the Elder Gods about his feelings and obligations towards the mortals, and what he would be willing to do to ensure their survival.
Liu finds Nightwolf, who teaches him about the power of the Animality, a form of shapeshifting which utilizes the caster's strengths and abilities. To achieve the mindset needed to acquire this power, Liu must pass three tests. The first is a trial of his self-esteem, courage, and focus. The second comes in the form of temptation, which manifests itself in the form of Jade, a mysterious warrior who attempts to seduce Liu and offers her assistance after he resists her advances. Liu accepts Jade's offer and takes her with him to the Elder Gods' temple, where he and his friends meet with Rayden. The third test is never revealed.
