QWhat are the differences between the SyFy TV-Version and the Unrated Version?
AFor the boradcast on SyFy Channel, only a reasonable amount of violent scenes were put in Species IV - The Awakening. Moreover there mustn't be any explicit nudity scenes and no bad language either, which is quite unsuitable with this franchise. As a result of that, almost anything was modified / censored: apart from some tightened plot for commercials, many scenes were shortened, contained alternate, more harmless footage plus digital image and dialog modifications. Nevertheless the shorter version was edited with care - as usual. It's pretty nice to watch even though a lot of visual appeal is missing. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
ATom takes Miranda back to Forbes' lab where he performs an ultrasound and finds that she is pregnant. Miranda informs him that her human side is dying and reminds him what he must do. Before Tom can do anything, the lights suddenly go out and he is attacked by Azura (Marlene Favela). Miranda transforms into alien form and stops Azura by coughing up three tentacle darts that pierce Azura's chest. However, Azura retaliates by stabbing Miranda through the back with her wrist tentacles. Tom finally kills Azura with a shotgun blast. As Miranda, back in human form, lies dying on the floor, she says to Tom, 'Thanks for giving me life.' In the final scene, Tom releases several canisters of gas and lights a Bunsen burner. He is then shown walking away from the building as it explodes into flames.
