Fourth And Final..??

 

 (imdb)

SPECIES: THE AWAKENING-2007-A college professor Tom (Ben Cross) admits to his fake niece Miranda (Helena Mattsson) she was created in a lab from DNA strains from outer space. After she transforms into a monster with a deadly tongue and slaughters a hospital staff, Tom takes her to Mexico. While searching for his former partner Forbes, he's chased by a monster Nun. Finally, he meets Forbes (Dominic Keating), an idiot English guy who makes clones of dead people using the alien DNA. 

Like the first 3, it features nudity, an alien sex scene, gory SFX and is clearly the worst in the series. Director Nick Lyon has made a lot of mindless junk like ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE (2011) and RISE OF THE ZOMBIES (2012).

Alien DNA Monster

 

 (themoviedb.org)


SPECIES-1995-A kind of mad scientist (Ben Kingsley) puts alien DNA into a human fetus and winds up with an alien human female monster that kills and regenerates. He puts together a group to hunt it. An assassin (Michael Madsen), 2 scientists (Alfred Molina, Marg Helgenberger) and an empath (Forest Whitaker). Named Sil, she/it (Natasha Henstridge) is looking for a mate. After a lot of killing she gives birth and the climax takes place in an underground cave. It was ok and the cast is good. 

Director Roger Donaldson directed big-budgeted things like THE BOUNTY (1984) with Mel Gibson, NOW WAY OUT (1987) with Kevin Costner and COCKTAIL (1988) with Tom Cruise. After this he made the mad volcano hit DANTE'S PEAK (1996). Of course, they couldn't quit while they were ahead...

MMA?DNA



CYBORG SOLDIER-2008-This dumb Sci-Fi action drama has been done a zillion times before only the actors change. In this case MMA fighter Rich Franklin plays an emotionless, logical killer cyborg (named Isaac) who escapes his research lab. He hooks up with a female deputy (Tiffani Thiessen) while being hunted by another group of cyborgs. Franklin's trance like robot acting is the unintentional funny highlight of this done to death mundane film. Bruce Greenwood is the head of the project that created Isaac. The director John Steadman was a stunt director on other films.

Not Untold Enough



THE UNTOLD (AKA: SASQUATCH)-2002-A group lead by a billionaire bio-tech CEO (Lance Henriksen) goes looking for a crashed plane that carried his daughter and some kind of DNA machine in this inept boring Canadian horror film that borrows from THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT. They run into the legendary monster and Lance watches a video his daughter left behind. The group argue about the rich guy's real intentions and are terrorized by a hairy bigfoot creature (shown mostly in POV shots). The direction by the debuting Jonas Quastel is really annoying at times.
