I'm not familiar with these films, but, yeah, some situations can be tricky. I remember I asked myself exactly the same when I created the page about Mewhu. In his case, Mewhu is the only one of his species ever seen... However, there is a scene where the girl, Molly describes something that Mewhu communicated to her by telepathy, and she describes seeing "lots of Mewhus". This is the only part of the story that includes other members of his species, and it's just vaguely mentioned.

Now, our rules specify four situations in which we can create pages about characters (as opposed to species). Situation number two (the relevant one in this case) says:


 * The character's species is unknown, and he/she is the only one of his/her kind ever seen, so we don't know for sure whether there are others like him/her

I personally feel that the key part of this rule is "we don't know for sure". I was really going to create a page for Mewhu's species, rather than Mewhu as an individual. But I changed my mind at the end because I felt that there was no certainty. The other members of his species haven't been truly seen. All the evidence we have is a telepathic projection described by a seven-year-old girl. Is it conclusive? Can we be sure that it's real? At the end of the day, Mewhu's species is unknown and Mewhu himself is the only member of his species ever seen, so to follow the rules, I felt that the page should be about him.

Now, in the films that you describe, it seems to me that the situation is different: that the audience does actually see the other members of these species. If that's so, it's better to create pages for the species, rather than the characters. But since you're the one who watched the films, if you do feel that the situation is ambiguous enough or uncertain enough for some reason (just like the Mewhu example I gave), I certainly trust your judgment. From your descriptions alone, I myself think that the pages should be about the species. But since I haven't seen the films, you are better qualified to judge that than I am.
