Story Synopsis:
Based on the short story by Donald A. Wollheim, Mimic tells the horrific tale of Dr. Susan Tyler (Mira Sorvino) and her husband (Jeremy Northam), who genetically engineer a new species, the Judas Breed, to eradicate an epidemic threatening the lives of New York City children. Three years later, their cure has taken on a life of its own beneath the city, camouflaging itself by mimicking human beings.
