Summary: PREDATOR CLONE
Review: D.N.A. is a low budget, but effective, clone of the two PREDATOR movies in a lot of ways, particularly in the way the alien creature appears and reappears.
Mark Dascascos (usually in martial arts films) plays a sincere young doctor whose genetic breakthrough is stolen by nasty scientist Jurgen Prochnow. Prochnow has genetically reproduced an alien creature with deadly powers and plans to sell it as a war weapon to the highest bidder. Dascascos is joined by Robin McKee as a CIA doctor/operative to find this creature and destroy it. A cute if somewhat irritating little boy leads them into the jungle where the creature has been killing the natives. Most of the special effects are adequate, but there is one glaring bad one involving the crashing of an enemy helicopter. The performances are okay, but Prochnow overdoes it a little, but that's expected with mad scientists I guess.
Certainly not a classic, but for scifi and creature fans, it is passably entertaining.
