How The Genus Alien Nearly Destroyed Humanity in EVOLUTION

Directed by Ivan Reitman, Evolution is a 2001 sci-fi comedy, starring David Duchovny, Orlando Jones, Julianne Moore, and Sean William Scott, about a rapidly evolving alien life-form that wreaks havoc on a small town in the desert of Arizona.

Hey guys what’s happening? Niyat here with film comics explained, and today, we're exploring the story, production, and its main antagonists – the unfeeling, ever-evolving invasive organism simply known as “Genus”.

I remember this one! It was amongst the most underrated classics out there! I wish some speculative evolution project would have actually make full blown cover of this alien bioterraformer

“Ice cream… I’d like an ice cream please.”

“Okay what flavor?”

“It doesn’t matter. It’s for my a$$”

A quote that roamed around my group of college friends for months! Thanks for covering this Niyat!

the ghostbusters spinoff about busting alien lifeforms. love the movie back when it came out.

I remembered this sci-fi comedy when I was young, just started college. The critics are totally wrong & doesn't deserve that much hate. David Duchovny, Orlando Jones and even Sean William Scott were terrific in the film. I had a total blast & fun time. Too bad it wasn't a box office hit to justify a sequel.

The bit where the Genus bug crawled up the biologist’s ass scared me as a kid, but also got me to laugh super hard lmao

This video unlocked a childhood memory that I didn’t know I had

I used to watch this movie all the time, the story was so interesting and the actors performances really elevated the script they were given. The special effects looked pretty bad even back when it came out, but it worked with the silly tone of the movie. It's too bad Orlando Jones hasn't acted much for the past ten years, he really was hilarious in Evolution.

I loved this movie ever since my childhood friend put it on during one of our sleepovers, I just stayed up watching this wild film that both scared me (the spider like creatures freaked me out of my skin back then) and just kept me watching.

An underappreciated gem of a movie.
Orlando Jones's character was really funny.

Imagine what would happen if the Aliens in this Film encountered the Chaotic Shimmer Being from the Annihilation film, interesting fight/battle or cross-breed-mutations going on!!

I loved this one growing up! Best mix of science fiction and comedy out there. Can you cover The Core?

[raphses]

I have watched this movie many times when I was a kid. You gave me a literal blast from the past with this one.

[TheRealsemaJ]

My work played this in rotation with 3 other movies for 6 months in a row, I never felt the need to watch it at home naturally.

[dylanfrancis]

No clue why the Genus are getting attention lately, but not complaining in the least!

[williamcastillo]

This is one of my guilty pleasure movies

[cloroxbleach]

I loved this movie as a kid. Got me interested in sci-fi

[josephlight]

thoroughly enjoyed this as a kid and recently had the joy of watching it again with my daughter who also found it highly amusing, still an awesome movie today!

[DrMuFFinMan]

A overall great movie especially with David Duchovny and Orlando Jones. The casting for the movie was spot on.

[panchora]

I enjoyed this movie when it came out. And its nice to see that the special effects still hold up after 20 years.
