SPECIES (1995) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

[@chaost4544]

As a kid, this was one of those films I snuck downstairs to watch when my parents were asleep.

[@Ariarosesmommy]

Omg, me too on Showtime 😂😂😂😂

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

Brody said he watched this with his Mom. Tres awkward. I went to see "Monty Python's Meaning of Life" with my Pop. I wanted to die.

[@amberaustin3243]

I watch this with my parents. Lol! 😂

[@CuidightheachODuinn]

@@cainealexander-mccord2805 Why awkward? Would you get an irresistible urge to jump your mothers bones or something...? Weird ass.

[@LenOliver-yz6os]

Hell yea!!!! with a bottle of lotion in one hand and a hand towel in the other.🤣🤣🤨😳👍

[@stonerviking4079]

I hope J is never in a position where he has to deal with something like this. He'd break quarantine in a second to save his own ass 😂

[@krdragon6950]

Species was released 29 years ago today ~ July 7th 1995

[@AwkwardBlackGal613]

"Do we have to censor alien titties?" 😹 I hope you keep doing alien movies, they're some of my favorites. Slither is my # 1.

[@Kootie03]

"Puberty hit her different." BWAAAAAHAAAAAA!

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

Natasha Henstridge , Ellie Mcpherson and Rebecca Romjin are my favorite super models of all time.

[@pillboss1987]

My dad’s buddy from high school is the guy who picks her up at the club. He gets killed in every movie

[@LibrasReact]

Omg!!! 😂

[@Anwelei]

That’s pretty cool

[@ryanotorpedo]

He didn't die in the rock lol

[@JamieLeaFL]

Oh dude, watch Mimic. Came out around the same time. Horror films all had a similar vibe.

[@TriarchVisgroup]

I love Mimic.

[@Ashmo613]

Agreed

[@SA-zoom1]

Forest whittatker's empath is hilarious. The type of dude to say it's dark outside when it's 2.00 am. 😅

[@Kronical69420]

Went to the same empath school as Troy.

[@Sentinel3D]

As for whipping his ass at 15:00, remember everyone was ignoring Ripley when she didn't want to open the door? It would have saved a bunch of lives if that door was never opened.

[@DavidMyrmidon]

Preach..

[@donpollett4751]

If you look at H.R. Giger's artwork from back in the day you quickly realize why the movie had alien titties lol

[@my_randomology]

Somehow, my uncle thought it was a good idea to take a bunch of 9 and 12 year Olds to the drive in to watch this movie.

[@SFOlson]

I saw it at 13 in the theaters when it was released with a friend of my sister.

[@bentucker2301]

Perfectly reasonable 😊

[@sugarplumsoda]

I watched that nightmare fuel when I was like 5 or 6 years old with my dad and confused about why I was trying to watch it.

[@lonelybeetle]

“I know that’s probably surprising for some people, but I am *NOT* a diabetic” the tone in his voice made me laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@JayReeves-ql8cr]

I read the book when i was around 13 or 14... and yes secretly watched the movie without my parents knowing...lol...ohh nostalgia

[@sugarplumsoda]

Wait, is there a book that was inspired?

[@shainewhite2781]

One of the sexiest Sci Fi Horror movies ever made! Natasha Henstridge was everyone's wet dream back in the 90's!

[@trash-girl84]

100%!!! lol

[@DavidMyrmidon]

She's still Gorgeous.

[@brianvernon249]

Alfred Molina. Took him so long to be an a-lister. Here, in this movie, young & struggling, he’s #4 of the team of 4 and ends up the most important person @ the very end.

[@danm9319]

“I bet it smells of sweaty donkey butt” oh that bit killed me 😂😂😂😂😂 thanks Jay!

[@Raven5150]

The most important alien movie in our lives right now is they live cause next year is 2025 and I can't wait for they live to come true

[@HellionSol]

it already has come true, they live, we sleep

[@dorothypittmon3072]

I think there’s a species 2&3. All them are great movies. It’s been years since I seen this movie. Your so funny 🤣 keep bringing the movies ❤

[@DavidMyrmidon]

They went up to 4 (3 Titled, 1 Spinoff). I thought they went up to 6, but I stopped watching it after 3.. so I wasn't sure. 3 had a Good overall Plot (Point), but the "Magic" was kinda already Spent after (Natasha Henstridge left on) 2.

[@orlandoruizjr3834]

Jay saying, " you should have drove her home," made me laugh. I freaking love your reactions Jay. You always put a smile on my face.

[@bullpup33]

This was a Blockbuster special on a Friday night. Good times.

[@DominusLuna]

Wahoo! And Yes, it's key to the plot.

[@jessicapazo7718]

Natasha Henstridge 🔥 🔥 I think its safe to say on any level, male or female, young and old, we all had a major crush on this beautiful creature :) I was just a kid when this movie came out and I remember thinking she was one of the most beautiful women in the world and how if I could look like anybody, it would be Natasha Hensridge. Deadly alien species or not, she's gorgeous. And yeah, the movie is good too lol a fun watch. I still bust out laughing at the jacuzzi scene where she tells the guy " I want a baby" lol he's like " EXCUSE ME?!" 😂😂😂 dude thought he was getting lucky 😂😂 And good recognizing Jay - that is a very young Michelle Williams 👍

[@DavidMyrmidon]

I honestly believe that, had they not come.. that Dude probably would've had a STRONGER Chance of Survival.

[@Codametal]

Aw man, I said Dr. Doom was in this in the last video. I'm getting so old I got it mixed up with Doc Octopus. Great reaction as always! And happy birthday to Blank!

[@desmawalker556]

[@danjohnson2986]

She was 21 when this came out. She’s 49 now. I feel OLD

[@cbretschneider]

Damn

[@lordofthereels6790]

If you like Species you should check out Lifeforce. Similar plot with a horny alien chick but WAY bigger in scale. Like if Species was Bad Boys 1 Lifeforce would be Bad Boys 2 in terms of ambition and "cocaine cabinet" oddity.

[@MystaHassenSTL]

Saw this, for the first time as a kid, with my moms & she'd tell me to "cover ya eyes" at the nudity scenes.. but I was still peeking. Lol

[@HellionSol]

smart

😂😂😂😂

[@ramonacosta2647]

Glad to hear that you didn't miss any key plot points.

Worked at a theater showing this. God the guys went insane. And I had the hots for the Alien. Go figure.

[@trash-girl84]

this was the ultimate naughty movie back in the day lol Michael Madsen was my ultimate movie star crush lol from Reservoir Dogs to THIS....YUM!

[@Chefcorky]

The guy in the pool is an actor named Whip Hubley. His sister's name is Season. Season was married to Kurt Russell, Goldie Hawn's longtime partner. Bit of trivia.

[@reneedennis2011]

@@Chefcorky Thanks for the info.

Commenting before watching. "They key to the plot!"

Doc Oc still got the best deal out of anybody in this movie.

So much "essential to the plot" in this movie

[@andrewsawyer1375]

Warch Eve if Destruction. Gregory Hines is one of the main characters.

Went to see the last show with a group of friends after being in the beach all day. Packed movie theatre and it did not disappoint!

commit multiple 187 and rob the cash drawer without a thought but eating unpeeled banana sideways is the most savage thing in the first half hour of this film

If you want to see Forrest Whitaker at his best,watch The Last King of Scotland.

[@reneedennis2011]

Yup. He won an Oscar for that.

Did everyone forget her parts grow back?

For The Sake of Ending The Movie.. everyone chose to Forget. 😅

There's 4 of these movies...The first 2 are worth checking out as for the last 2...trash!

[@charlesswitzer8378]

This is just one of those movies you never expect to see people react to haha. I think I was like 13 when this came out at a time when filmmakers (and audiences) weren't afraid to make bold choices for mainstream movies. Had no clue that was Michelle Williams lol

[@PaleGirl]

I only recently discovered your channel but I love your reactions! You're funny and sweet and it's great content so thank you 😊

[@S_047]

More than a few "key to the plot" inbound

[@Renegade2786]

It's sequel's plot has more keys than the keymaker in *The Matrix Reloaded*

[@chefskiss6179]

You seeing everyone when they were a lot younger... PLEEEASE watch Ben Kingsley's 1982 flick, Gandhi.

[@amberaustin3243]

I watched this with my parents. I was 14 years old. I can’t believe they let me watch it. There are some pretty graphic and gory scenes. Lol!

[@sugarplumsoda]

I watched this nightmare fuel with my dad since I was 5 or 6 and he got super serious that why I was sitting on sofa while watching it

[@NavyVet1968]

Without watching the reaction yet, I’m going to go out on a limb and say he’ll say “she’s bad”. Let me find out.

[@austinwillcut4919]

I saw this in a theater. Wait until you see Species II lol.

[@heliopyre]

14:00 I love that they had so much time to just let them out and close the door before shit got bad. really not diabetic? that's good to hear.

[@arkavi2]

The cute ones are always the craziest 😂

[@r.e.tucker3223]

Good film, great reaction.

[@danielallen3454]

My question is, will the Murder Whistle get the ideas behind the plot, or will he be distracted by the keys to the plot?

[@LordVolkov]

The keys are there to fill the plot holes 😉

[@CelticFCBhoy1974]

If you like Forrest Whittaker, you should check out Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai. Really great film that's a bit of a hidden gem. It's a bit of a slow burn, but a very enthralling watch.

[@SmokinDroFrayser]

Always get this and Splice mixed up

[@thomasgrimm1664]

Best scene in the movie is the baby eating the rat. Such an awesome shot!

[@eddieanderson9399]

Watch Phenomenon with John Travolta, Forrest Whitaker is in it.... also Dr. Ock is in a great mystery thriller movie called Identity (2003) with John Cusak, Amanda Pete, Ray Liota

[@centurycountess4949]

its been a couple of years since I saw this. I was a kid when I first saw this. I use to think that this alien was the female version of the alien from alien movies. until I finally saw the sequel of aliens. I remembered there being 3 sequels after this one. I've seen part 2 and part 3 continued the storyline but part 4 so I pretend there's only 3 and the 4th never existed.

[@jblewis1975]

Saw this in college and enjoyed it. I know I'm going to enjoy your reaction to it more, J! 😂👊🏻

[@keithcole8536]

I felt bad for the rat

But hes one of those “feel good” characters , so we give him a pass.

"yeh, that's him"

Natasha Henstridge plays in another movie with Ice Cube and Jason Statham called Ghost Of Mars that's a pretty good movie.

I had forgotten that Doc Ock was in this.

[@TheJericho1123]

and that's how the first octopus-alien was made.

[@DavidMyrmidon]

It was so hilarious when this Movie first came out.. I was in college (High School US) when it came on TV. I wanted to watch it, but The Whole Family was still watching TV at The Time.. so we all Ended up watching Muriel's Wedding instead. I was Mad at first, but Muriel's Wedding turned out to be a Great Movie. When I went to school The Next Day, EVERYONE was talking about it. 😅 ..and all I could contribute to The Conversation(s) was, "Yeah, but did you see Muriel's Wedding? It was really nice." 🤦😂 Needless to say, I did watch it a few years later, and I was glad that I watched Muriel's Wedding instead. Because when I did eventually watch it.. I was mature enough to understand and most importantly Feel Bad for her. She was literally a Test tube baby, who was forced into this situation.. at an INSANE Rate. And instead of Teaching her Things that she NEEDS to understand, AND Learn what they can from her. They just treated her like a Lab Rat, and Damn near tried to get rid of her the exact same way. It's disgusting. And I would have never known this had I watched it as a kid. The Franchise kinda stopped at 6; I think.. I know I stopped watching it after 3. It kinda ran it's purpose. But Natasha Henstridge, never did.. she's still as Gorgeous as ever. 😊

[@keithcole8536]

We gotta get those Exclusives to youtube jay lol

[@sleeper-cassie]

A bunch of my friends and I went to see this opening weekend. I’d never heard of Forest Whitaker before, and I was absolutely mesmerized by his performance, an instant fan.

Hey brother your videos really cheer me up man lmao 😂

[@rjbalbuena7789]

Oh god, traumatic core memory unlocked. I had already forgotten all these last 25+ years about the guy getting impaled by tongue through the neck. When I first saw that in gradeschool it stuck with me through months and I couldn't get any sleep.

Not sure if it was mentioned yet but on your statement that it was weird that she had nipples... the scene prior with the man in the pool, she was choking him with those alien nipples. Not metaphorically either

Watch species 2 and stop there lol there’s like two more in this franchise.

[@wittleMermaid13]

If you enjoyed this, I think you'd enjoy Splice! Adrian Brody and Sarah Polley.

[@TeeJayDesastron]

Will the rats take over? Find out in one of the sequels! Personally I have only watched the first three of these and it has been a very long time, but if I remember correctly the movies were fun enough.

[@BonnieTheOutlaw]

When women was seen as dangerous 😂😂😂

[@Nay-kp6uu]

I watched this movie on vhs when I was way too young but right at that time for understanding "key to the plot". It did make me scared to use public restrooms for a long time.

Just started watching and I know there's going to be a lot of "key to the plot"s.

One of my all time favourites!! I was in junior high when this movie came out 😂

And if you think nipples on an alien is weird, you gotta watch the movie, Howard the duck.😅

26:11 so advanced lol

[@Warvvolf]

Actually, it is key to the plot.

[@jackransom.]

A Ben Kingsley role that blew my mind was in Sexy Beast.. Damn good flick ; ).

[@thomasgrimm1664]

The logical sequel to this movie would have been monster rats taking over the city within 24 hours. But they needed another naked chick for the titty shots, so scratch that idea.

[@Raven5150]

At least 4 think 6 species in the franchise if that answers any questions

Species 2 next

[@shainewhite2781]

This is one of the very first movies to use motion capture technology as they used a rod puppet, 12 inches high, and scanned the movements into a computer for the VFX shots.

[@Rees2005]

Love Species, thank you J! ☺️💚 Stellar cast! Also... Seemed liked back in the day you either wanted to be Nat or... to "be" with Nat. She is so smart, tall and sexy and underrated!!!

[@eddieanderson9399]

Your reactions remind me of Navi from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. "Hey... Listen"

[@pennygadget7328]

We all wish that there was more stuff with her alien form. Johnson's XFX built one of the most amazing Geiger film designs ever, and it was relegated to a handful of shots and some baaaad CGI, almost all of it in the finale. The did a lot more puppet stuff for Species II, but the movie wrapped around those effects was the kind of undercooked exploitative trash this movie was at least trying to be above.
