The plot is pure hokum but it works well as alien human crossover Sil escapes from a testing lab with a team of professionals comprising a psychic an action hero a woman etc on her tail. The film takes obvious influence from a range of similar films such as Tobe Hoopers Lifeforce and Jack Sholders The Hidden but it brings all of its elements together well and somehow manages to feel fresh and inventive. That being said however the movie is lots of fun and overall I wouldnt hesitate to call it one of the best horror films of the nineties. On the one hand the film has a great cast and is professionally produced but on the other the special effects wouldnt have looked out of place in an eighties film and the plot concentrates mostly on its sleazy and often silly by products. Species is like a meeting between an amateur low budget film and a big budget horror movie. In any case I thought this was a pretty good Sci FiHorror film and I have rated it accordingly. I also liked the performance of Forest Whitaker who played the empath by the name of Dan Smithson and Marg Helgenberger as the micro biologist named Dr. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who havent seen it I will just say that Natasha Henstridge was perfectly cast as the beautiful but psychopathic creature named Sil. They also discover that she wants to mate. It is at this point that the scientists realize that they have created a true monster with little concern about destroying anyone who gets in her way. Unfortunately she escapes and within just a matter of days has attained full adulthood. The scientists are then shocked by the rapid rate of growth from the humanoid creature and fearing that they may have rushed too quickly into this experiment decide to destroy the young female before it can mature.
Using information received from an extra terrestrial radio transmission scientists on earth are able to reconstruct alien DNA and then inject it into a human egg in accordance with the instructions from their source.
