Species 1-4 Collection

Species 1-4 Collection Description

All four instalments of the sci-fi horror franchise. In 'Species' (1995) scientists use the world's largest radio telescope to send messages into outer space. 20 years later they receive a message containing instructions on how to mix human and alien DNA to form a new species. The scientists create Sil (Natasha Henstridge) but she escapes from the observation facility. She must be stopped before she mates with a human male and creates a new species which could overwhelm mankind. A team is assembled to destroy her led by scientist Xavier Fitch (Ben Kingsley) and including assassin Preston Lennox (Michael Madsen), biologist Laura Baker (Marg Helgenberger), anthropologist Stephen Arden (Alfred Molina) and empath Dan Smithson (Forest Whitaker). In 'Species II' (1998) Dr. Laura Baker has created a pseudo-alien clone, Eve (Henstridge), to assist her research after another series of alien killings begins. Reuniting with Preston Lennox, Laura realises that astronaut Patrick Ross (Justin Lazard), recently returned from Mars, is the culprit. Having become infected with the alien virus, he is now obsessed with spreading his seed across planet Earth. In 'Species III' (2004) a fatal hybrid weakness has given humans the advantage in the ongoing fight for supremacy between mankind and human/alien hybrids. However, when Sara (Sunny Mabrey), the daughter of Eve is born, she grows into the most genetically perfect alien form yet. Seeking to repopulate her kind, she heeds an overwhelming drive to mate, while a skilled military team trails her in an attempt to end the war between the two species forever. Finally, in 'Species IV - The Awakening' (2007), college professor Miranda Hollander (Helena Mattsson) realises something is wrong when she wakes up from a blackout surrounded by mutilated bodies. Seeking an explanation from her uncle, she learns the horrifying truth: she is the result of a cloning of human and alien DNA. Travelling to Mexico to confront the scientist responsible, she soon becomes the target of a stream of ravenous mutants. With her biological clock ticking, Miranda's alien instincts are about to take over, leading to a battle unlike anything the Earth has ever seen before.
