Last year Scream Factory released all three of the Species sequels on Blu-ray, and now they're sure to make fans of the franchise (and completist collectors) happy with their announcement of a Collector's Edition release of the original Species.

Scream Factory has slated their Species Collector's Edition Blu-ray for a summer release. Special features will be revealed in the future, and we'll be sure to share them as soon as they surface.

Directed by Roger Donaldson (Dante's Peak), Species stars Ben Kingsley, Michael Madsen, Alfred Molina, Forest Whitaker, Marg Helgenberger, Natasha Henstridge, and Michelle Williams. Will you be adding it to your home media shelf?

From Scream Factory: "Well the cat (or alien, in this case) is out of the bag. Due to some recently unplanned leaks on various outlets we are moving up our reveal that we are planning a Collector's Edition of the 1995 original sci-fi hit SPECIES for sometime this Summer!

No details to provide at the moment but we update you in the upcoming months."

Synopsis (via Blu-ray.com): "When a beautiful human-alien hybrid escapes from observation, scientist Xavier Fitch dispatches a crew of experts to find her before she is able to fulfill her horrific purpose: to mate with unsuspecting men and produce offspring that could destroy mankind. As her deadly biological clock ticks rapidly, Fitch and his team are hurled into a desperate battle in which the fate of humanity itself hangs in the balance!"
