Over deze film

In 1993, the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence Project receives a transmission detailing an alien DNA structure, along with instructions on how to splice it with human DNA. The result is Sil, a sensual but deadly creature who can change from a beautiful woman to an armour-plated killing machine in the blink of an eye. Government agent Xavier Fitch assembles a team of scientists and mercenaries to locate and destroy Sil before she manages to find a mate and breed.

Remember sneaking into the cinema, with a drunk friend, to see this, on a weekend many moons ago. Natasha Henstrige, plays the horny hottie alien, and is most entertaining to watch, as we learn why it might not necessarily be great to make contact with aliens! 😨. As per usual for Google Play Store; it's a tad expensive, for a B-movie that's over a decade old, but definitely worth picking up during a sale, if it's priced right.

THIS MOVIE CAME FROM NO WHERE REALLY IN A PERIOD WHEN THE X-FILES AND THE OUTER LIMITS WERE PEAKING AND GENETICS WAS THE BUZZ WORD TO A UNIVERSITY DEGREE WE HAVE SPECIES THE RESULT OF CROSS GENTICS WITH ALIEN HUMAN DNA GROWN INTO THE FORM OF A HOST WISHING TO BREAK FREE AND MATE SHE ATTEMPTS TO BREAK OUT OF THE COMPUND SHE IS IN AND HEADS FOR THE LIGHTS OF NEVADA AND ENTER THE SPECIAL TEAM SENT TO TRACK HER IN THIS PERFECT SLEEPER OF A MOVIE BRILLIANT ACTING AND ALONG WITH A CAST AND CREW WHICH MAKES THIS A REALLY ENJOYABLE 'FAMILY' MOVIE.

Slickly made sci-fi with a good script and nicely drawn characters. The mostly physical special effects by Steven Johnson are astoundingly good and still stand up today.
