Story Synopsis:
This adrenaline-charged science fiction thriller follows an alien conceived via a genetic extraterrestrial transmission. The offspring, a young girl, escapes execution from the top-secret scientific laboratory where she had been under observation. She rapidly develops into a beautiful, dangerous and intelligent woman (Henstridge) who seduces men to reproduce offspring that could destroy the human race. Scientist Xavier Fitch (Kingsley) assembles a team of specialists to combine their expertise and hunt her down before she produces a new predator species on Earth.
