Peerless sci-fi horror crossover which made director Ridley Scott's name. A space salvage crew investigate a distress call to find that the being who made it is long dead but surrounded by eggs which are anything but. And what hatches is very nasty indeed. Not that you see that much of it which only increases the terror as it picks off the crew.
Sigourney Weaver ( as Ellen Ripley )
Sex : Ellen strips down to her underwear under the mistaken impression she's safe
Death : Survives
The 29 year old had little screen experience when she auditioned for the role but hers was a starmaking performance. She's never been short of work since. he's been nominated for an Oscar three times but never won.
Veronica Cartwright ( as Lambert )
Sex : It's often suggested that the alien interferes with Lambert before killing her but it doesn't have a great deal of time for it
Death : Eviscerated by the alien
Veronica would have preferred her character to be a bit stronger but played the role to perfection.
