I have always remembered this scifi 'movie' from my childhood and could even recall its name.

I recently found it posted on Youtube and watched the 2 part TV mini-series again after more than 25 years. I somehow seem to remember a scene which was not in there. I specifically remember there being a love/sex scene between the two main characters.

Maybe it could have been implanted back then by my boyish crush on the attractive Maryam D'Abo but i remember it so well being in there because i had it on VHS and must have seen beyond 10 times.

After seeing it again i think it could have been at the end when they both escaped and survived the prisonship crash on earth by locking themselves in the prison cell of the xenomorphic alien. I remember it being in there but no other details of it except that they were in a confined space after a narrow escape from the alien.

Google lead me to some post saying that there is also a seperate movie version but i haven't found any other references to this. I guess it could make sense because the tv series got edited for younger viewing and the (straight-to-VHS?) movie didn't?

Can anyone else recall if there was a different version which had the love scene, or am i just imagining things?

    Are you referring specifically to the Mini-series or the 13 episode TV series that followed it?

    It should be pointed out that Mr Skin's website is generally pretty NSFW. Or so I'm told.

  • I was referring to the Mini-series, not the tv episodes afterwards, but it makes no difference. There is no other version with said scene. So i did image it. Weird. Or maybe a mixup with memories from some other movie. Thank you anyway for your time.

    She got nekkid and freaky in a film called XTRO and there was a very brief (blink and you'll miss it) topless scene in "Something out there" but no love scene at all. From what I've read, the aliens procreate with their hands

The Mini-series ended up as a TV movie ( First two episodes edited together) in my country, so the OP may have seen the movie before the miniseries; the scene explaining that the alien humanoids have erogenous zones in their hands ( Not sex organs, just pleasure nerves, like the backs of the knees in Tenktonese women ) was in the movie, but not in the episodes. And the D'Abo cousins - Maryam and Olivia - are both regulars in SF and very pleasing to the eye moreover.
