Coolest/scariest monster in movie history.

I like also the theory that their elongated heads let them have massive muscles to power up the second mouth stab

[dennychilders]

That Geiger production photo is pretty sweet

[ChrisAnonymous]

Its because Geiger incorporated phallic imagery into his art

[Croziuz]

It's phallic, thats what, look at Gigers art

Fun fact, xenos will usually resort to using their heads to break through things and if that doesnt work, they'll often resort to using their acid to their advantage.

Seems like Frieza got caught in his 3rd form 😭

[Unendingshadows_]

Geiger actually loves making his aliens based of reproductive organs so that’s why the predators and xenomorphs look weird

"Making it harder to kill requiring more than one headshot"

That one Yautja in the piramid: 😎🔪

The Head is also a Form of showing Rank in a Hive. Xenomorphs with Smooth Skulls are young Aliens or Drones while others like Warriors and much older ones have Ripped Heads. Xenomorphs with a High class in the Hive, do have also bigger Skulls like for example the Preatorian, Crusher and Queen

I think im one of the only ones that liked Alien Resurrection. The whole half human/ half xenomorph was just cool too me.

Real fans of Giger work knows it was originally a phallic reference, as a lot of his art, which is very interesting in a movie about maternity, power forces between reason and pulsions, feminism in a man world and finally the bad that is actually in ourselves (which can join the reflection about pulsions). Cause yes, all of this is clearly in the script by Dan O’Bannon and in the scenery by Ridley Scott, so this penis headed monster, with no clear view on his world (no eyes) and a second mouth that is made to hurt and penetrate, is one of the best metaphorical creature in fiction, and it succeeds to scare the shit out of everyone too !

It evokes phallic imagery, from what I have heard.

"Hans."
"Ja?"
"Get ze flammenwerfen und ze BFG."

[MrIdontknowww]

I always figured it was to hold its mouth mouth tongue thing

[shamanraymond]

Romulus confirmed they have eyes behind the visor like a one way protective mirror, js

[meltingatom]

When I was a kid I thought it was to make the inner mouth stronger 😅

[Resident_Nightlord]

Gigers headstone was modeled after his alien artwork and it’s easily the most badass headstone I’ve ever seen

[marloncarpenter]

Always so cool to see how much thought is put into these sort of things

[bJT]

Run they look so fuccin terrifying 😅like an actual demon 😱 the sound the second mouth makes is nightmare fuel.
