What they don't tell you here is that the story was loosely based on the rather cheesy 1958 movie, It! the terror from beyond space. In that film they land on a planet, an alien gets onboard, hides out in the air ducts, like ALIEN, and starts bumping off the crew. At the end, they trap it in a manhole like doorway, put their spacesuits on and pump the air out into space rather than jettisoning it into the vacuum

Ridley was a tough woman. I wanted to name my daughter after her. When I was pregnant with my first son, I was so sick. It was our joke that the alien was getting ready to come out. That was how my morning sickness felt!

To a young teenager, all the scary parts were well worth it to Watch Sigourney for 2 1/2 hours !!!

SAC69, They should have left it at Alien and Aliens. The others were rubbish.

JimmyLovesQL, I think the first three, with Sigourney Weaver, were the best of all of the franchise! My wife loved the Marine who asked " what'll we do now"?!? Bill Paxton?? She would heckle me with that every time something went wrong or broke around the house, and she even would wake me up at night to shriek that question at me, as a joke!

Alien &Aliens was some of the greatest movies ever. They dropped the ball with Alien 3 . Alien Resurrection was ok. Very scary.

Player Pidgypoppit, Laurie Strode (Jaime Lee Curtis) survived "Halloween" the previous year. But yeah, "Alien" is one of the best!

which is of course is perfectly true as stated in an previous question. Sound doesn't travel in a vacuum. Unless you are in a pressurised enviroment.

Tanya, when I was pregnant with my first, I dreamt he would come out like Aliens, then when I Saw it, it had a Straw Hat, Red & White, plus combining Waistcoat, like Mel Brookes Comedy Film, 30 Years Latter I still remember that Dream, pregnancy & Dreams are Always Weird at same time, 🤪🤪🤪!🤣🤣🤣!

In the late 80's early 90's I subscribed to a magazine titled Omni and there was one issue I remember that featured a great deal of artwork by H. R. Ginger.

I swear the other day my head was hurting so bad that it felt like I was fixing to have one of those things burst out of my skull! 🤯 I'd only just seen this recently bc my son wanted to watch it with me. And when I got that bad headache that alien-chest popper from the movie came to mind, and I told my son that it felt like that. He was sorry for my pain but got a good laugh out of my remark! 😄
