Species: The Awakening (2007)

Fans of crap sci-fi, horror, tits and jumping alien Mexican nuns rejoice, for The Awakening gives you all those things in one place.
To be fair, if the Species connection had been eliminated and the entire thing was recast with real actors things could've been different. There’s a workable central theme that would be a solid basis for a tense, violent sci-fi thriller. Nevertheless, and against all the odds (it's a SyFy original), it trumps the abominable Species III (2004).
