Species
Think Alien with tits and you have Species. It is no coincidence,
because it's Hans Ruedi Giger who created the Alien monster who put his
hand on Sil, the beautiful alien protagonist of this sci-fi/horror.
She is played by Natasha Henstridge a Canadian model who makes her film
debut with this film and also stars in the two subsequent sequels. Next
to her a super cast composed of Ben Kingsley, Michael Madsen, Alfred
Molina, Forest Whitaker and Marg Helgenberger. Not bad at all?
Behind the camera we find Roger Donaldson directing a story written by Dennis Feldman. And MGM is producing.
Super cast, super production and super everything lead the viewer to
think they are in for an equally super film. In reality, when compared
to all that has just been said, 'Species' somewhat disappoints
expectations by being an enjoyable horror film that could very well
have been made by a less rich production. And it could, story in hand,
also have been an excellent b-movie, but here they try to do things
properly and don't always succeed.
Interesting is the mixture of horror and sci-fi genres with important
sexy moments with the protagonist often remaining topless. And of
course not bad are the special effects, the transformation into a
monster and everything that generates blood and violence.
"Species" tells the story of Sil (the blonde Henstridge), a creature
created after an exchange with an alien form that provides not only
instructions on how to create unlimited fuel, but also a DNA sample and
ways to combine it with human DNA.
The scientists thus think the aliens are friendly and proceed with the
experiment, creating Sil, a baby girl who grows rapidly and especially
shows some disturbing outbursts of anger. The heads of some lab,
worried about the results, decide to end the experiment and eliminate
Sil. But she escapes, grows and in addition to killing anyone in front
of her, she also tries to procreate, thus giving rise to the
aforementioned sexy scenes. On her trail is a super team composed of
Michael Madsen, Alfred Molina, Forest Whitaker and Marg Helgenberger,
professional killer, professor, seer and biologist respectively.
The hunt is not easy, but at one point the beautiful Sil finds herself
attracted to Preston 'Press' the killer played by Micheal Madsen.
Yes, indeed, he has all the makings of an excellent b's.
