Quotes:

-
[Dillon saves Ripley from being raped]
Dillon: You better get outta here! I gotta "re-educate" some of the brothers!
-
Bishop II: Ripley! Think of all we can learn from it! You MUST let me have it! It's a magnificent special!
-
Dillon: Why? Why the innocent, punished? Why the sacrifice? Why the pain? There aren't any promises. Nothing certain. Only that some get called, others saved. She won't ever know of the hardship and grief of those of us left behind. We commit these bodies to the void with a glad heart. For within each seed, there is a promise of a flower, and within each death, no matter how small, there is always a new life. A new beginning.
-
[Searching for the Alien]
David: Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!
-
Dillon: You're all going to die. The only question is how you check out. Do you wanna go on your feet? Or down on your fuckin' knees... beggin'? Well I ain't much for begging! Nobody ever gave me nothing! So I say fuck that thing! Let's fight it!

Trivia:
|
- First-time director David Fincher disowned the film, citing constant studio interference and actually walked out of production before editing began.
- Although the alien that hatched from the dog was a rod puppet, early filmed tests used an actual dog in an alien costume.
- Hungarian title translated back to English: "Final Solution: Death."
- Multiple proposed scripts caused misleading advertising which implied that the movie would be set on Earth. William Gibson also drafted a script in which Ripley spent most of the film in a coma.
- Original script had the alien impregnating a cow, not a dog.
