Thanks for the memories!

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

I think it a real Bummer that The drop dead gorgeous Eve, died in the first scene, lets be honest, everything shes done in number 1 and 2, and a little boy killed her and with all her power she would of deffo of stopped him... it is an OK film but its the worse 1 out of the Quadrility set. Spoiler ALERT COMING UP! what i find really cheap and tacky is when the woman grabs her leg and drags her into the beam, she clearly falls back to floor, and later on it shows how she grabbed the edge, how was that even possible?? The only character in it i liked was the other evil B*tch (The Baddie) but with the new Eve what is with that stare she has on, she is attractive, but shes not like WOW SO not a very good choice to pick her to play the main role, but eh? what can i do :D. Lastly seeing its a low budget film it is not half bad.

The honour of getting a strait to video release is kind of degrading, but in the b-movie industry in doesn't automatically mean that a film is without merit. Take for example the three tremors sequels, fans love those. I'll give Species III a little credit for rejuvenating the concept pioneered in the first movie. This material feels much more fresh than Species II. It manages to continue the story, without getting increasingly shallow as a side effect. What made species so unique was that the film was designed as a bug hunt, but for a while it makes us sympathetic to the bug, rather than repulsed by it. Species III has a similar effect at times, which I must say I didn't expect. It ends on a nice note for a horror film, something which may actually get you interested in Species IV rather than annoyed with the idea. The first thing to like about Species three is, that there is no more Michael Madsen or Natasha Henstridge, both of whom were rather useless in the sequel. Last time we saw Eve (Henstridge) she was in an ambulance on her way to the morgue. That's pretty much where we begin here. Next thing you know she comes alive, if only for a moment to give birth. the military escort Dr. Abbot runs away with the baby, raises her in secret, names her Sara, and once she is old enough formulates a plan to mutate her DNA. He takes on one of his students as an apprentice, who Sara falls in love with. This sums up the basics of the first two acts. The final half hour takes a weird and unnecessary turn, as the film tries overly hard to surpass, its predecessor. Apparently one bomb-shell alien chick is not enough. Why do so many films have climax trouble? being convoluted works in books or TV, but doesn't enrich a movie experience.In the end though, Species III, delivers more than you might expect, even if it lacks a moment of intelligence.

I have watched the first three one night in a row and it seems like this one the scriptwriters were seriously smoking something potent when they wrote the script to this.You could argue it has somewhat logic to it all, and with the way the characters act, but the logic is like the sort of logic only the craziest bond villain would possibly have, or just Dr Evil logic.For example the first moment of the movie has a college professor pretending to be an army officer just so he can steal the last surviving alien to take home to make a master pure alien race so he can win a Nobel prize? (I guess that said professor did not know that Nobel made the prize after inventing nitroglycerin, realising it was actually dangerous to mankind so created the Nobel prize specifically to reward scientists for making things that are good and a benefit for humankind) So how he thinks creating a pure race of alien that simply wants to destroy all human kind would win him this prize is way beyond me to understand?.Now to get back above, why the army would also allow something so highly top secret and risky to be put in charge of and transported back to the base in the hands of someone who nobody didn't even know is beyond all rational logic to me too.The only good thing about the movie in my opinion was the incredibly hot alien that comes out of nowhere in the final act just to be the final fight villain which obviously a film like this needed and clearly the filmmakers felt could not have been Sara as she was a very likable character so tacked on this other vicious Alien hot girl for solely that role.Which by the way she came into the film by posting on the internet in the personals ads asking if anyone out there knows and can explain to her what alien DNA is, which our hero's roommate steals the info from his journal just so he can potentially get in on with the hot girl which surprisingly turns out to be a bad idea, you can tell I am not making this up as I doubt anyone could make this up bar the one writer of this movie.Overall I felt it was an okay watch, the main alien girl was not a patch on Natasha Henstridge, but the incredibleness of the villain sort of made up for this. She should have been Sara though in my opinion as she was a better actor, had more edge to her and also was, in my opinion, much more attractive.I will be watching 4 tomorrow.

Female, birthed from Henstridge's alien and the alien DNA infected astronaut from the previous film, is close to the most perfect hybrid whose eggs might lend an answer to how to cease the dying half-breed alien species. The half-alien/half-human species, created when the astronaut impregnated human women, have flaws in their DNA and succumb to illnesses and sickness due to their low immunity. Dr. Abbot(Robert Knepper)kidnaps "Sara"(Sunny Mabrey), posing as a soldier in the military, before a half-breed could get her. Abbot is a professor who sees the Nobel Prize in the future if he finds the answer to the perfect half-breed species, devoid of the current flaws plaguing them now. He seeks assistance from a gifted student, Dean(Robin Dunne), to help him in collecting data and perfecting their experiments on Sara. Meanwhile, Sara, who has grown to a young, luscious, sexual creature from an infant in a manner of days, seeks a mate, finding none that are worthy of her impregnation due to their sickness. Abbot and Dean always remain in danger as the lethal half-breeds continue their pursuit of Sara and a cure.As with most second sequels and beyond, the premise of the half-breed female sexpot aliens is wearing thin despite rampant nudity by stunningly gorgeous naked bodies. While some of the f/x are effective(..such as Henstridge's giving birth to infant Sara, subsequently strangled by a half-breed alien boy's tongue in the truck with her;a man is split in half by an alien Sara's tongue;some cool disease-riddled aliens in human form showing nasty flesh wounds developing), the budget has certainly dwindled somewhat when compared to the other films...such as when Sara murders the college dean which isn't the least bit convincing. Also, the story is smaller scale, removed from the governmental/national/global aspects which enriched the apocalyptic terror, instead taking place almost completely within a university town where college kids reside...sure, in dialogue that global terror exists, but in this film, the setting is confined in one significant area. Leads Dunne and Knepper are okay enough, and Mabrey is a babe. Yet, compared to Henstridge, who is almost irreplaceable as the incredibly sexy alien from the previous two installments, Mabrey is also smaller scale. As a sequel to an okay franchise, I have seen worse. And, we at least get to see the alien creature designs again, even if there few and far between.
