      Alien sister who was driven to death by human supernatural powers

      It was not high technology or human nature that killed the alien gene invasion, but a very NB old black prophet, who relied on the supernatural sixth sense to chase the blonde long-legged sister (legs) nowhere to escape. And in this chasing process, it seems that the most common psychological analysis in ordinary movies basically does not work, and I basically gave up after being tried, because this sister is simply an animal. So the analysis of her behavior later turned into wild animal...

      Appreciate this sci-fi movie as a fable of reality

      Borges once interpreted the Gospel as a man who claimed to be God was abandoned by his God. In the same way, I think this movie can be interpreted as an allegory about sexual jealousy.

      The object of jealousy is a young woman who has just entered her youth. As the so-called Women's Big Eighteen Transformation, she has transformed from a shameless girl into an unusually shining superstar in social circles. She eagerly wants to enjoy the fruits of youth and follow the rhythm of eros and...

      It's so-so, but there are benefits.

      In 1995, the sci-fi movie "Alien", which was said to be a pornographic version of "Alien" was similar, although the final form was disgusting, with various tentacles. . Just a few people can save the world. The problem is that IQ is enough.
      In the short comment, it is also said that such a beautiful girl, is it so difficult to beg hehhhh? What worldly way. Haha, in fact, the purpose of the movie is also to sell meat. Although it looks like you can't help watching it, but it has a good...

      Perfect human

      Xier joked with the hunter in the elevator: "I was still here when I was most worried about the earthquake." This is to imply that she can predict earthquakes like a mouse, and Xier could perceive it when she was looking for a mate for the first time. Male genetic defects, as the female scientist in the film said, this should have been murine characteristics.

         Xier has part of human chromosomes but has murine characteristics, which means that mice and humans come from the same...

      The movies in this series are okay. Now I feel a little like this kind of thriller with science fiction. At least when many movies can't be seen, I still have the desire to watch this kind of movie.     The DNA from alien

      Revisiting the old goddess in the VCD era became a business card. The goddess was really an extraordinary stunner back then, just like today's middle-aged fat aunt, not only the body is out of shape, but also the face is different. I don't manage my body well and I also said that my slim body was maintained by taking medicine. Go, I'm sorry. When I watched it back then, I thought that the alien shape of this film was copied from "Alien". In fact, it was a film made by Giger, the creator of...

    Movie quotes

    • Dr. Laura Baker: Do you have a girlfriend in New York?

      Preston Lennox: Oh, I guess I've had a few; but, they don't hang around very long. I guess I keep too many secrets.

      Dr. Laura Baker: Do you wanna share one with me?

    • Dr. Laura Baker: [Sil] She would make one excellent biological weapon if someone out there thought we were some kind of galactic weed that was going to spread through the universe.

      Preston Lennox: So, what you're saying is that, er... she's the cure and we're the disease?

      [Preston laughs]

      Dr. Laura Baker: That's well said.

      Preston Lennox: [studying a terminal] Baker, Laura. 1735 Meander Drive, Simi Valley, California. That's you, right?

      Dr. Laura Baker: Last time I checked.

      Preston Lennox: What do you do for kicks out there in Simi Valley?

      Dr. Laura Baker: Oh, pine for guys like you.

      Preston Lennox: That's what I thought.

      [they both laugh]

    • Xavier Fitch: What's happening? Kills a girl at the club, comes home with this guy and kills him.

      Dr. Stephen Arden: Well I'd say she fits the classic definition of a psychopath. She's got nothing to inhibit her. No moral sense, no social structure

      Dr. Laura Baker: Well she wasn't exactly smothered with a mother's love, or taught good manners, you know what I mean?

      Xavier Fitch: I asked what was happening.

      Dan Smithson: He did something to her. She was angry.

      Dr. Stephen Arden: She'll kill if she feels threatened. She'll kill anyone that gets in her way?

      Xavier Fitch: Gets in her way of what?

      Dr. Laura Baker: Her life cycle. I think she's trying to mate. Reproduce.

      Xavier Fitch: Okay, so why did she kill the girl at the club?

      Dan Smithson: Sexual competition.

      Preston Lennox: She's pretty hard on the competition.

      Xavier Fitch: And now she's managed to mate.

      Preston Lennox: It doesn't look like a successful mating to me. He's still got his pants on.

      Dan Smithson: She's frustrated.

      Dr. Stephen Arden: Who isn't.

      Xavier Fitch: What is her problem? He was here. She was here.

      Dr. Laura Baker: All right, maybe she rejected him. She probably has some special kind of senses. Rats can sense diseased or genetic damage in their potential mates, So we can test his body for any hereditary diseases, any defects that would have made him a loser, essentially.

      Preston Lennox: Needles. Maybe he was some kind of a doper or a diabetic.

      Dr. Laura Baker: Yeah. Well, either way would have made him unacceptable. Excuse me. All right. Insulin. Diabetic. There you have it.

      Xavier Fitch: Well, she could have just walked out. Why did she have to kill him?

      Dr. Laura Baker: Well, I guess he pissed her off.

      Dan Smithson: Some men don't like to get rejected. They get insistent.

      Xavier Fitch: Put an APB out on this guy's car.

      Aide: It's already happened.

      Xavier Fitch: I'll go back to the motel. I want to check it out thoroughly.

      Preston Lennox: More docile and controllable, huh, Fitch?
