Trivia
The producers wanted to go back to H.R. Giger's designs of the alien creature due to popularity with fans and the absence of this decision in Species III (2004). The original look is apparent but with different color variations and new spikes on the aliens' wrists of the nemesis. It is also a first in the series that a half human-half alien character does not change fully into the alien creature but has prosthetic eyebrows, veins and contacts for a long period of time in more than one scene.

When Azura is lying dead at the bottom of the pit and Tom looks at her, you can clearly see she is wearing body-suits from the waist downwards. See more »Soundtracks
Oye Mi CanciónWritten by Gary Romero

I was expecting it to be a bit cheesy and low-budget-looking, but I wasn't expecting to be insulted.
This "film" has similar production values and acting caliber as you will find in an average daytime soap.
It's as if the crew of "Days of Our Lives" borrowed the studio's gear for a weekend and went and shot a "Sci-Fi/Thriller" because those are popular these days, so we should be able to make some cash with it.
It wasn't scary, wasn't thrilling, wasn't even sci-fi-y, just boring and predictable. No plot, bad lighting, laughable critters, wooden acting, no reason at all to force yourself to sit through a turd like this one.
The rave reviews here have to be from people associated with the production, or else who haven't actually seen the "film".
Avoid at all cost.
