3''Decoys'' is a 2004 movie about aliens that take the form of attractive, blond women. They're on the verge of dying out, and [[MarsNeedsWomen need to mate]]. Unfortunately, the mating process drops their temperature below freezing, killing their partners. Fortunately they are [[KillItWithFire vulnerable to heat]].

5The 2007 sequel, ''Decoys 2: Alien Seduction'', continues in much the same vein.

7!!This film contains examples of:
8
9* ActuallyADoombot: The second film indicates that the alien leader Constance that Luke killed in the first film was just a clone of the real one.
10* AssholeVictim: Constance confessed her race operated this way at first, so that on the off-chance their hosts die, no one would care about them. Gibby being an example because it's implied by them that he mistreats women. Which is kinda true as he was on the phone bragging about [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment having sex with Natasha, while having sex with Natasha.]]
11* BolivianArmyEnding: [[spoiler:The first film ends with Luke about to be impregnated by Alex who turns out to be an alien, a process that has killed everyone before him but was just about worked out. Subverted in 2 since Luke survived the encounter with Alex. And then 2 plays it straight when the film ends with the next generation of aliens hatch and attack.]]
12* BizarreAlienBiology: Luke notices a strange green organ between Lily's breasts. And this is before she gets to see her true [[ReptilesAreAbhorrent humanoid/reptilian form]].
13* CanadaEh: It's a plot point, believe it or not.
14%%* CassandraTruth
15%%* DefrostingIceQueen
16%%* {{Fanservice}}
17%%* FanDisservice
18* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: They have green skin, and they look like babes...just not at the same time.
19%%* HeterosexualLifePartners
20* HiddenDepths: Roger. At first he seemed to just wanted to get laid, but when Constance confesses her secret and mission, he willingly goes through with it. This was because he always wanted to be a father.
21%%* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique
22* LackOfEmpathy: It seems at first that the aliens don't care that they killed as anything more than a mere nuisance since, they need their hosts alive to have their spawn. Subverted with Constance, when she fell in love with Roger. [[spoiler: It doesn't help him survive, but Constance really felt bad about what she did to him.]]
23* MarsNeedsWomen: The gender-swapped version.
24%%* ThePowerOfLove: subverted
25* RedHerring: Two.
26** Sorority leader, Vikki Vickers not only is human, she didn't know her fellow "sisters" were aliens or had been killed.
27** Luke thought all the alien women were blondes. [[spoiler: The last one in the movie, Alex, proved him wrong.]]
