Species/Trivia


 * Follow the Leader: While not a full-on Alien rip-off, H. R. Giger complained that there were too many similarities, starting with his involvement in designing the creature (he even suggested changing the ending, which he felt as similar to both Alien³ and Terminator 2: Judgment Day'').
 * Hey, It's That Guy!: Marg Helgenberger, whom fans of CSI may recognize as stripper-turned-investigator Catherine Willows, plays the head of the research team in the first three movies.
 * And hey! It's Mr. Blonde! And Dr. Octopus! And Idi Amin! And Gandhi!
 * Hey, It's That Voice!: Frank Welker, who you might also know as Megatron provided Sil's noises. Sort of kills some of the hotness, huh?
 * Old Shame: Michael Madsen doesn't have good things to say about Species II.
 * Michelle Williams doesn't like the first film due to the amount of bullying she got after it was released.
 * Even H. R. Giger was not happy about the second film, requesting a reduction of credit in his involvement.
 * Playing Against Type: Michael Madsen, normally a villain, plays The Hero. With one particular scene establishing him as a Kindhearted Cat Lover.
