The Fungus only produces orange slime when it needs to entice a person into smearing it on their body, so it can transform into a copy of them.
First of the seven Sex Files installments.
The series of films was originally going to be called Twilight Sex, but a German company interested in investing proposed the title change to The Sex Files to cash in on the popularity of the X-Files (1993) series. The producers liked the idea and went with it.
After this episode was released, people pointed out that the plot was very similar to Species II (1998). But director Rolfe Kanefsky said he wrote his script long before he even heard of Species II.
Rolfe Kanefsky said Kira Reed and the actors all had to do their own stunts during action sequences due to budget constraints. Reed joked that she was fine doing it even though they risked getting hurt. She said it was fun and for once she didn't have to strip naked to do it.
