In 1974, the world’s largest radio telescope relayed a message to the rest of the galaxy. Who knew that twenty years later, the response would be so terrifying? Scientists have received "friendly" instructions on how to mix human and extra-terrestrial DNA to create 'Sil', a new species.
The creature, now a young “girlâ€, escapes from an observation facility, and Chief Scientist Xavier Fitch must stop it at all cost. He assembles an elite team of experts to track down and destroy Sil, now mutated into the shape of a beautiful and erotic woman (played by newcomer Natasha Henstridge). In a heart-stopping race against time, the team follows the alien's trail of blood and destruction to Los Angeles where she continues her one mission: seducing unsuspecting men to produce a deadly offspring capable of destroying all mankind... and killing anyone
who stands in her way.
