nyone let down by the look of the Aliens?
Looked like under-nourished "ID4" Aliens with rickets!
The description (so well read by Burton) in the Musical Version is must better and far more gross.
Something like...
"A huge rounded bulk, larger than a bear, rose up glistening. It's mouth quivered and salivated, and tenticles writhed as it's body heaved and pulsated". Great stuff!
And I think the tripods were built around them, as there is that great painting (and description again) of red shreds hanging from the huge eyes of the tripods that the hungry birds were tearing at.
far more impressive imho.
