Artistic License – Biology | |
| Sputnik / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: Cortisol is produced by animals as well, so it's not clear why the early attempt to feed the alien with pigs didn't work. On the other hand Semiradov is hoping to use the alien as a weapon, so he may be deliberately conditioning it to attack humans. | |

Human Resources: Criminals are being fed to the alien to keep it supplied with the cortisol it needs to survive. When Tatyana objects, Semiradov shows him the file of an inmate who raped and murdered his underage neighbour. | |

| Sputnik / int_234bd900 | comment |
For Science!: Or for a Nobel Prize, in Rigel's case. Given that the Communist system discourages rocking the boat, it's easy for him to turn a blind eye to what Semiradov is up to on the grounds that he can't do anything about it. | |

Slime, Snails, and Mutant Tails: Tatyana enters the cell in a Hazmat Suit to make contact with the alien, only to startle it when she slips on the slime trail it leaves on exiting the host's body. She's lucky to get out of there with just a nasty bite. | |

Birds of a Feather: At the start of the film Tatyana is facing a review board for her controversial treatment of a patient, and is about to be kicked out of the medical profession. Semiradov recruits her because he thinks she's a kindred spirit, willing to do what is necessary despite the Communist system discouraging such initiative. They turn out to be Not So Similar. | |

Body and Host | |
| Sputnik / int_44204118 | comment |
Body and Host: The alien inhabiting Konstantin is believed to be parasitic and it's assumed it will abandon him (dead or otherwise) once it's fully adapted to Earth's environment. However their relationship turns out to be symbiotic with each sharing the same consciousness and dependent on the other. When Konstantin realises this, he decides to Kill the Host Body so the alien will die as well. | |

Cut Phone Lines: When Tatyana tries to place a call to Moscow, she's told the only phone with an outside line is in Semiradov's office. Rigel later uses this phone to alert the authorities as to what's really going on. When Konstantin is finally let out of his cell to sleep in the medical wing, he finds his television is connected to a VCR player but has no TV antennae. He's able to MacGyver a makeshift antennae, and isn't happy to see a news report announcing that he and his fellow cosmonaut returned alive after a successful mission. | |

Vomit Indiscretion Shot Tatyana drops her infra-red binoculars and retches after witnessing the alien kill. This draws a guard in her direction and she's shown Hand Gagging herself until he leaves, whereupon she finishes vomiting. No doubt with this in mind, Semiradov asks Tatyana is she's eaten recently before showing her the alien for the first time, especially as it's going to come out of Konstantin's mouth. Konstantin vomits Blood from the Mouth after crashlanding his capsule on Earth, and later when the alien is shot, showing he's achieved full symbiosis. | |

Healing Factor: The alien can repair injuries to both itself and its host, curing the severe injuries Konstantin received (presumably from Explosive Decompression) in just two days. This bites Semiradov in the ass (well, the head actually) when he brings the wounded alien to Konstantin to force them back together and the alien recovers a lot faster than anticipated. | |

Parasitic Horror | |
| Sputnik / int_df18f1dd | comment |
Parasitic Horror: The alien lives in the host's esophagus and stomach, and secretes a toxin that knocks out the host and relaxes his muscles so the alien can exit via the mouth to hunt and feed, which it does every night. Once outside the body and ingesting oxygen it grows from a snakelike form to a multi-limbed Starfish Alien 1.5 metres in length. It's speculated that the alien is using the host as a spacesuit until it becomes fully adapted to Earth's environment, whereupon it will discard the host like a cocoon. | |
