Virus Alien

"The life form is noxious, harmful to the whole"

"What Life form?"

"Man!.. You are Virus" 

Quote from the movie.

The Virus Lifeform is the alien creature encountered in the 1999 film Virus.

Not much is known about this alien. It seems to be quite intelligent - even if its only made out of a purely electrical energy. It purposes should be the goal to wipe out entire mankind, although nobody knows what would happen IF the creature did really manage to wipe out the human race completely.

Anatomy
The Virus alien is a non-organic lifeform and made out of a living electricity or living electrical energy. As without a physical body, its unable to interact with the physical world, communicating and maneuvering requires a physical body and it knows it. Its true form looks more like a collection of blue lighning bolts, capable of traveling in outer space without the need of oxygen. Another ability it possesss, is to travel through earth electrical systems in this form with relative ease.

With only a mere an extraterrestrial energy, the alien is indeed sentient and is highly intelligent enough to communicate with the crews and knowing its awareness and intention. The alien somehow is accidentally being transmitted down to earth by the Russian space station after the crews are being electrified, and within a matter of hours, the alien has already absorbed the knowledge and technology on a Russian research ship. With a vast majority of the knowledge it has gained, its mission is to wipe out the entire human race as to its' POV, it sees humans as a "virus". By gathering enough information and knowledge, will give the opportunity for the alien to use the gears on the ship as well as perpetratoring the dead crews it has killed. Metamorphising into half-human and half alien.

It can operate machines and anything mechanics, having drones and workers handy. But to be able to maneuver around the ship, the alien uses many of its decoys to lure the crews down to the lower deck as that's where its residue. Compossing its new decoy by using human body parts and reconstructing into its own "kind".

The alien has many forms. Comes in many variable size and shape, but all has purposed to kill and using human body parts as part of the machinery.

Weaknesses
In its electrical form it could be trapped inside of a computer it was inhabiting, by disconnecting it from the rest of the system and cutting the power; putting it into a form of stasis. Despite the strength of its physical body, heavy explosives and water was enough to destroy its body and assumingly killing the creature along with it.

Forms
Aside from the primary forms the creatre is apable of extending its consious through its servents and slaves giving it many forms that include:

Gatherers
Scouts and supply hunters created by the creature. They resemble various insects and and were created to gather more material. They have built in weapons such as small saws and nail guns for defence.

Cyborgs
Creaturers similar to the borg of Star Trek, these creaturers are a combination of machine and the corpses of the crew.

Golems
Massive cyborg creaturers that protect the samller servents. They can rip a human in two with little effort.

Goliath
The body the alien utimetly creates for it self. This 9ft monstrosity is a combinations of machine and flesh, and is heavily armmed and armored. Its lower half is made up of eight mechanical spider legs while its top half is more humanoid.

In the Film
The creature is first seen traveling in space in its electrical form where it collides with the Russian space station Mere; killing the crew and be transmitted to a Russian research vessel through the station and ship satalite link. The creature takes over the ship; locking the humans ouit of the computers and machine shops while it learns about its new enviroment.

The conclusion may seem to indicate that mankind is a dangerous species as the alien sees, somehow you get the feeling the alien is some sort of an extraterrestrial "immune system defense" which destroys all form of parasites or viruses which threaten the body, but on this particularly case, it may see humans as the virus. It is unknown of where or which the alien originated from, perhaps the creature may in fact be a bio-weapon engineered by another intelligent lifeform where their purposes are to wipe out the entire mankind.
