An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Originally, the Alien creature was intended to be an advanced, cultured civilization with an incredibly complex life cycle, involving the use of living hosts for gestation, followed by an incredibly violent and aggressive adolescent stage. With such a complicated means of procreation, the species had developed stringent religious beliefs based around their method of reproduction, involving the impregnation of sacrificial animal hosts inside ornate stone pyramids.

  • Originally, the Alien creature was intended to be an advanced, cultured civilization with an incredibly complex life cycle, involving the use of living hosts for gestation, followed by an incredibly violent and aggressive adolescent stage. With such a complicated means of procreation, the species had developed stringent religious beliefs based around their method of reproduction, involving the impregnation of sacrificial animal hosts inside ornate stone pyramids. In Dan O'Bannon's original script, it was inside one of these pyramids where Dallas, Kane and Lambert discovered the Xenomorph Eggs, rather than on the derelict ship — the idea being that the derelict and its crew had simply stumbled upon the structure and succumbed to the creatures it contained previously, foreshadowing what would happen to the Nostromo. The pyramid was going to be filled with elaborate hieroglyphics, similar to the pyramids found on Earth, and featured a prominent central sacrificial chamber where hosts were inseminated atop a stone plinth (an idea notably recycled/adapted in Alien vs. Predator).
