Alien Nation: Body and Soul was written by Andrew Schneider, Diane Frolov, Renee & Harry Longstreet (previously novelized by Peter David), and was directed by Kenneth Johnson. In the film, Detective Matthew Sikes and his partner must investigate a scientist who is crossbreeding humans and Tenctonese. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
