The mysterious world of science fiction is a major influence in American popular culture, from Superman comics to the various Star Trek TV series. The 1979 movie Alien is a landmark in the tradition of science fiction motion pictures. Telling a nightmarish tale about a demon beast that terrorizes the crew of a space cargo ship, the original has spawned a number of film sequels. This plaster of Paris egg, created by designers H. R. Giger and Michael Seymour, is a central prop in the Alien narrative and functions as the iconic image in the poster art for various editions of the film.
