     Something fishy's happening here. My somewhat spotty memory
recognizes the above plot summary as that of a made for TV movie I
saw some years ago, starring (or featuring) James Olsen (I think).

     Mark Leeper has already told us that the third "Genesis II" 
film was called "Strange New World". My somewhat spotty memory does
associate that title with the above plot summary.

     The only thing is, I can't remember any connection in storyline
or characters between the first two "Genesis" films and the film
described above (and Random's plot summary given above doesn't detail
any such connection). I DO remember the existence of a third "Genesis"
film; but I remember the movie described above as being a totally
different entity.

     Can anyone help?
