This is what happens when you mix human DNA with a Xenomorph.
- Purvis going crazy when he's shot, picks up Dr. Wren, holds him to his chest, and screams as the chestburster goes through his chest and Dr. Wren's head.
- The Newborn... Considering the circumstances.
- The Newborn being ripped to pieces as its internal organs, blood and skeleton are sucked out of its body into space through a small hole.
- The seven malformed Ripley/Alien clones. One of them literally begs Ripley to kill her.
- To go into more detail, the first three clones all died at a young age, which left all of them looking like deformed infants, the fourth one looked relatively normal, aside from inheriting the Xenomorph's secondary jaw, which left a hole in her face, the fifth one was more Alien than human, with an elongated skull, no eyes, sharp teeth, dorsal tubes and an arm that grew into the rest of it's body. The seventh one is the least graphic of the bunch, more closely resembling Ripley, but with a deformed hand, and a somewhat elongated head.
- Fridge Nightmare Fuel: Ripley 8 can sense the existence of the Queen and her offspring, but she doesn't share any sense of her surviving fellow-clones. Finding her malformed "sisters" came as a total shock to her, indicating none of them were mind-linked to the Xenos in the same manner as she. Which means that, despite appearances, that particular clone was more human in regards to psychology/mental state than Ripley-8.
- The underwater sequence.
- Imagine waking up from cryo-sleep, not at your destination, but with a peculiar egg in front of you. Then you realise you're restrained and can't get away. Then the egg starts to hatch, and you start to scream...
- The cover
for the first issue of the Dark Horse comic book adaptation is rather creepy; humanoid facial features are superimposed over the newborn alien's face, creating a ghostly effect. - The soldiers killed by an alien in their escape pod. Imagine frantically strapping yourself into something expressedly designed to protect you and then being trapped in there with a killing machine.
