Species

Release date: July 7, 1995

The Pitch:

A group of scientists splices alien and human DNA to produce a hot horny blonde who gets naked a lot.

Why You Need It:

Few films blend the horrific and the sexy as well as Species does, and a lot of credit is due to the impossible hotness of alien babe Natasha Henstridge. What really makes the movie work is its tension-filled structure, where the extraterrestrial sex predator Sil seeks out an ideal mate to extend her species before her creators stop her sex rampage. With wonderfully erotic and grotestque alien design by the great H.R. Giger and amusingly over-the-top supporting performances by Ben Kingsley and Forest Whitaker, Species is one of the guiltiest of cinematic pleasures.

Talent:

Roger Donaldson (director), Natasha Henstridge, Ben Kingsley, Michael Madsen, Alfred Molina, Forest Whitaker, Marg Helgenberger, Michelle Williams.
