Comments: I just wanted to say that I am deeply into the art or horror, expressing the feelings of solitude, despair, yet beauty. I paint and draw, but I don't consider my self an artist of art itself, but in presenting the imagination. Introducing new atmospheres, new beings, new personalities. I don't talk too much, I had a gun pulled to my face at age 10. I've been hearing this stuff, about H.R. Giger not getting credit 4 his ideas, and quite frankly, I don't think that the film would of gotten' anywhere without the alien design in the first place. I hope that 20th Century Fox reads this and lives with shame, shame on u!, shame on uuuu!I'm an artist 2 Bi********tttcccchhhh. I'm sorry for being so hateful, but money does'nt buy imagination. The part in Alien I appreciate the most, was not just the carnivore alien, but the unexplored world, and the pilot creature. That feeling of a truly foriegn world(the face of it gets forlorn in the darkness, as Tom Skerit turns to the other dude and they find some strange new passage. I had no idea who H.R. Giger was until alot later(I had already seen 2,3,&4) before I saw a book on alien in a bookstore, nobody I've ever Known,not even my parents have ever heard of this "not new artist". I am 16 and I'm starting to turn my life around. I'm not a computer finatic I learned about this sight from H.G. Gigers' (alien on skis' book). I just wanted to complain myself, am I going to have the same petty, but vital problems as well. I will not mention any film titles I intend to put out, yet, but I might want to contact, you, H.G.Giger on a possible but not definate(don't pass judgement) "The Thing 2"Or another film about an Alien being that leaves it's home planet in a binary star system, where a SuperNova collides into a hot blue star, and is picked up by yet another foreign civilization, you might not find any thing in these ideas, but I'm dead serious. I could keep insulting "being swatched by Fox", but I'm not going to lower myself to thier know hows of building metal replicas of the Giger-Necronomicon paintings, and I read all about the way they made that stuff. It was impressive but just a transient echo of somebody elses painting. Any way,I hope you get things settled, be it some statements of apology or some currency. If I make it as a movie director, the art medium of 3D motions,I will scare and humor(even) if all goes well. The reason I keep mentioning my own projects, is because I am dedicated to it, I have horrific dreams, I feel this is my purpose in life,I've chilled with Gangstas,Ijust want to project my anger, my pain, and my love to the sci-fi,ghost, that unknown horror from another dimension, and my specialty: the zombie. Show people that Phantoms is'nt the last of the good horror flix. I love your work H.R. Giger, I don't think you aim to scare. Alot of it does'nt scare me,I think your bathtub photos are pretty freaKy though. Good luck, man. Keep it real!

Comments: I find it very frustrating to find out that yet again HR Giger has been neglected in the Alien films credits. This is an outrage that these derivitive hacks steal his concepts and ideas, and then have the audacity to claim no affiliation. The whole Alien genre in general is a result of Gigers inspiring portrayal of his bio-mechanoid universe. I own most of Gigers books and find so many similarities with all of his uncredited film Aliens. As a fellow artist an Giger devotee, I find it appaulling that Fox has used his Beautiful Creation to their financial gains without paying proper respect to the the "Godfather of Grim". HR Giger is the artist I most admire due to his abstract artistic vision and his exact link to the macabre. He is the embodiment of the unknown and has captured the essence of the face of fear. His morbid creations give a voice to the screams of Hell and death everlasting.

Comments: I'm 25 years old and I loop up to H.R.Giger as he is the master of art and master of freehand airbrush. It is incredible stupid of 20th Century Fox to give the artist no credits. I really don't understand why because HansRuedi Giger is the one and only maker of Alien. Ofcourse Fox could have used another artist but they didn't. Simply by the fact that it is Giger's work that made the movie a big hit. Jezus, if he didn't made it there will be no Aliens, Alien 2 etc.... in the first place. HansRuedi Giger, I still have a lot of respect of the person you are. I have almost all your books and also paint and model myself.

Comments: It angers me to the point of insesibility that anyone, especially movie producers or directors, would even for a moment consider dissassociating an artist, any artist, from their own art. I mean, if a person has the skill, talent, or in M. Giger's case, the genius to create such beauty and horror, then they deserve full recognition for it. M. Giger's art touches in my soul an alien chord that says not all beauty is beautiful. I am a writer of horror, amateur status, but if their is anything I can do to aid in the cause of making sure that film and publishing companies cannot continue to treat their artists and writers like this, then please let me know.

The "Dali"esque thing about his paintings and drawings, is that pulls you totally towards something you know can kill.

Comments: Hans, As an artist I understand the anger you must be feeling. Your soul has been used and abused by 20th Century FOX. The Alien/biomechanical design are infact yours and you should be rewarded for the use of these designs. To be honest with you, the movie Alien Resurrection was an utter piece of shit and I can only hope FOX took major losses in its production. So it would seem that justice is finding its way. Do not dispair my friend, be glad they didnt put your name on the shamefull cheap garbage that has been turned out since Alien 2. We know who spawned the creature, we give you all the credit.

Comments: Frankly, Mr. Giger, this is not the only major *BS* Fox has done. I saw first Alien at 13, started to be afraid of the dark and opening my closet door, but don't ever regret seeing it. I was blown away. Your art mesmerized me ever since and has been one of the great influences in my own artwork. I've seen every Alien movie at least 5 times (except Alien Resurrection - it was entertaining, but the ending truly sucked). Not only the creatures of Alien movies, but the whole atmosphere, the essence of scream out: GIGER!! It's unseparable. We all know Fox is wrong, and I bet these money-grabbing bastards know it as well but don't care. Well, they can go **** themselves.

Comments: althought i saw alien on a too young age and had nightmare's for years :) i'm very glad that i saw it and so the others, the alien movies really reflect primal fear of human beings so good, unknown things(aliens) combined with small spaces but still with a very moody atmospheer you could almost taste. man i couldn't believe giger wasn't mentioned in any way in this movie i like his art very much and i couldn't believe that the tried to even copy it (the failed) because the film was a succes because of the besses laid by giger as every induvidual would see immidiatly. I do not think but know for sure that giger is entitled for BIG credits of the movie because the movie is the work of giger and the rest filled in by others.

The first movie would've flopped if the monster\alien look like a dinosaur or E.T. Even the philosophy on how the aliens procreate was Gigers doing and what a Philosophy. Although I am at a loss as to why they would do such a feeble thing. could it have to do with the fact that species was produce by another film company??. ps.

Comments: Well, as for Alien Ressurection, it's the worst Alien movie I've ever seen, and as far as I'm concerned the Alien saga ended with Aliens. I can understand why he would be upset about not having his name in the credits considering the Alien is his design, but I think he is too flattering in his first letter when he says that Ressurection is a great film. I think that Ressurection and Alien 3 were both terrible, and he shouldn't want to have such a burning desire to have his name posted on such a piece of crap. If another Alien movie is made please get the story writer from Aliens to write it, because everything afterwards put the entire focus on the Alien. Aliens had so much more in it than just the Alien (like a good story and good character developement). Suggestion, try looking at the Aliens comic books that came after Aliens, because they have a very good story for what happened after the events in Aliens. But unfortunately, somebody thought they could improve on that story and released Aliens 3 which was a dissapointment in every way. Well I'll stop babbling now because I think I have gotten my point across. As for Mr Giger, I think he should get the credit he deserve (ie. a place in the credits), but he is not the visionary that people say he is. He designed an amazing Alien and for that I am grateful, but we have to make sure that we don't disallusion ourselves about who he is.

This was a style that I believed to be so incredible that I thought it only a matter of time before less talented imitators would begin to appear. I was right, and it soon came to the point where every two-bit artist was "borrowing" from him. What I did not suspect was that one of these two-bit thieves would end up being Twentieth Century Fox. This Company has thrown away every bit of integrity that it may once have had, and the theft of Mr.Giger's work must not be allowed to continue while they profit from it.

Comments: What Salvidor Dali did for our concept of timepieces, I believe Mr. Giger did the same for our concept of alien creatures. He CHANGED it FOREVER. No smiling little bug-eyed melvins showing up at Devil's Tower in a HUGE carousel with lotsa pretty lights. To deny him what is rightly his is shameful at least and may even border on criminal. Down through history artists have always screwed out of what was rightly theirs. A damn shame. Shame on you Mr. Rupert Murdoch

Comments: Dear Mr Giger, falsificating and copying artwork is obviously a feature of nowadays. Anyway, whenever confronted with ALIEN design work, it reminds me of its very creator - H R Giger. This design is really unique and in its way sophisticated, nobody can ever redesign it another way, claiming it to be HIS very ideas. Yet I did not experience the mentioned, last ALIEN movie. Surely would I expect Your name exposed among the most important creators. FOX shall not need to "forget" You, cause their success relies on Your power of imagination. This power may resurrect every day in Your life! kind regards, Claus Dieter Heller

Comments: If I was a great painter and got my work on the movie screen I would only be happy and proud... I don´t understand why H.R. Giger is "upset" over this. Everybody who have seen Alien to Alien 4 knows that the art displayed on the movie screen is made by the one and only H.R. Giger. And again I would be proud to have my art as movie content... Today I have about 234 digitalized pictures of his art and I treasure those pictur- es as they were gold. (I´ve got two backups on zip-disk and SyQuest!)

Comments: It was a pleasure to stop by at H.R. Giger sites.... I admire Mr. Giger's talent and imagination, I wish him the very best, his artwork will live forever! H.R. Giger has created so many such a great visual effects, that it's referred to an industrial standard, which everyone wants to copy or borrow (usually with quite miserable results) We all know who made it first. F**k the rest...

Comments: If I weren't broke and a student I'd support your cause by purchasing the alien egg print. Let's give Spielberg something to base a movie on - let's holocaust 20th century foxes.

Comments: MOST RESPECTED MR. H.R.GIGER, do not waste your time with complete idiots with no talent that only care to exploit as many people as they can. Your name does not have to appear anywhere on the movie for the whole world to recognize your genius, skill, and ability all over the film. Nobody can deny it, you are the greatest contemporary artistor the latter twenieth century. It was you, and Dali who changed the face of art and fantasy forever.

Comments: Fox needs to live in reality for once. There is no way any of the alien sequels could happen without HRGiger's initial work. Regardless of his involvement in the sequels had it not been for his design there could be none. So why doesn't Fox grow up, admit they were wrong and give Giger the credit he rightfully deserves. As well as an oscar for the alien3 fiasco. With more sequels bound to come Fox better wisen up before their image sinks further into the sludge they crawled out of.

Comments: The Giger influence, style and pure creativity has more of an affect on the world of art than anyone could comprehend. The vision and depth is something that was bred from the soul. 20th Century Fox had none of this, until it was bought. Then it was stolen. The people know the truth and that shall be Fox's downfall.

Comments: #1.Alien-Greatest sci-fi horror movie ever created thanks to H.R. Giger and Ridley Scott. #2.Aliens-Greatest sequel ever created thanks to H.R.Giger and James Cameron. #3.Alien 3-This is now a decent movie after watching Alien 4. Otherwise it was horrible and a waste of my money. #4.Alien Resurrection-I was sick to my stomach when I saw this movie. This movie may have prevented further sequels. What was 20th Century Fox thinking? This was the 1st time aliens were computer generated and they were so fake looking in CGI. They should have used the team that created the insects in Starship Troopers. #5.Alien 5-This will never happen because of Alien 3 and Alien 4....too bad. I mention Giger in Aliens only because if it wasn't for H.R. Giger. James Cameron would not have come up with his ideas. (example: the Queen). Bottom line: Giger and his artwork are fantastic. I own every one of his art books.

Comments: I just want Mr. Giger to know that there are many of us here whom regard Mr. Giger's work as brilliant and astounding in every sense. THERE IS NO 'ALIEN' WITHOUT GIGER !!! In today's corporate game, those in Twentieth Century Fox (TCF) are nothing but a bunch of ungrateful bastards! We pray that one day, a Giant Consortium would come along and acquire TCF and made those responsible for this bullshit,FIRED and replaced with more sensible and grateful people who believe in genius like Mr. Giger. They made tons of money with Mr. Giger's design.....and they forgot why 'ALIEN' is a success ???...What a bunch of morons..WE WENT TO SEE 'ALIEN', 'ALIENS', 'ALIEN 3'and 'ALIEN RESSURRECTION' simply because of the the design of the creature... without Mr.Giger, where would they get to where they are today ?. 'TCF' stands for 'Today's Corporate Fuckers'!!!
