Plus d'infos iciThe most amazing thing about sci-fi -- aside from life-and-death struggles in fantastic worlds, of course -- is how the hundreds and hundreds of movie aliens rarely feel stale or repetitive. Their amazingly diverse looks alone aren't what make them unique, but just because they feel a little different doesn't mean we can't pigeonhole them. If you take a tour of the sci-fi galaxy, here are nine different types of aliens you just might meet.
Evil Aliens Who Take No Prisoners
Perhaps the most prevalent and most dangerous category of ET you'll meet is the malevolent alien who wants to destroy humanity, often just because. Beware -- they come in all different forms. There's the Martians of War of the Worlds and their tripod ships; pods that absorb humans and replace them with duplicates (Invasion of the Body Snatchers); and the Blob, which proves that we should all fear Jell-O. More-modern versions are no less nefarious. Independence Day's killers drive massive souped-up ships. And lest you think all killers want to simply wipe us out -- some like to have fun doing it, like the dreadlocked alien of Predator, who hunts humans for sport.
Evil Aliens Who Do Take Prisoners
There's something worse than take-no-prisoners aliens: those who do take prisoners. These guys aren't holding their charges in the "covered by the Geneva Conventions" sense, more in the "using their foes instead of killing them" sense. Why waste a resource, right? The massive extraterrestrials of Battlefield Earth enslave humanity, and the foes in The Puppet Masters are a race of mind-controlling parasites. Not a pretty way to go, but certainly less embarrassing than the alien machines of The Matrix, who use us as batteries. Batteries! How humiliating is that?
