Synopsis
Xenogenesis (1978) is a short sci-fi film you can watch online on iFILM — the earliest directing credit of James Cameron, made years before The Terminator and Aliens. Twelve minutes long, and shot on a shoestring.
The premise is lean: a man and an engineered woman travel deep space aboard a vast sentient starship, hunting for somewhere to begin a new cycle of life. When Raj wanders off to explore the ship, he runs into a towering robotic cleaning machine, and a fight breaks out. Cameron co-directed with Randall Frakes, and William Wisher Jr. appears on screen. A rough early experiment that already hints at the maker of much bigger worlds.
