Nemesis 2: Nebula, also known as Nemesis 2, is a 1995 science fiction film by director Albert Pyun, who also directed the film Cyborg. It is the sequel to Nemesis and was followed in 1996 by Nemesis 3: Prey Harder and Nemesis 4: Death Angel later that year. The film was shot in Globe, Arizona, along with part three. A compilation version exists which combined the four Nemesis films into one 100 minute version that Scanbox was going to release before the company went bankrupt in 2000. This version was released only in Eastern Europe in 2003, primarily in Poland.
Synopsis
73 years after Alex failed, humans have lost the Cyborg Wars and they are now slaves to the cyborg masters. Rebel scientists have developed a new DNA strain which could signal the end of the cyborgs, and it is injected it into a pregnant volunteer.
When the cyborgs learn of the woman and her baby, both are listed for termination. To escape, she steals a cyborg ship and is transported back in time to East Africa in 1980, where the mother is killed but the baby is saved. It takes 20 years, but a cyborg bounty hunter named Nebula eventually locates the young woman, named Alex, and travels back in time to terminate her.

Reception
One reviewer noted that the film appeared to have been an unrelated film involving aliens that was repurposed as a Nemesis sequel [1] and was critical of Price's performance, weak storyline and minimal relation to the original film, a theme that he later brought up in his review of the sequel.[2]
