As a copywriter who specialises in tagline design and a movie freak to boot, it's always good to join the conversation. The Alien tagline not only boasts emotional impact, it also subtly alludes to the fact that the movie is a horror, sci-fi hybrid. Recently wrote a post analysing the 'In space no one can hear you scream' tagline, so hope on over to http://creativepen.co.uk/2010/12/01/tagline-design-analysis-alien-movie-poster-tagline/ to check it out. thanks again for the post!!
