a.) Joss Whedon who wrote the script for Buffy The Vampire Slayer and produced the series by that name wrote the script for Alien Resurrection. He introduced a new alien entity into the story called "The Newborn".People who have heard about his work might wonder what personal themes he has brought into the film and assume that he somehow integrated the idea of vampires into the script. The newborn turns out to be an albino alien creature that drains the blood from its victims.
However the vampiric quality of this entity was soon written out of the story when they couldn't afford to create a newborn as he had imagined it. At present no artwork depicting Joss's vision of the newborn is know to the public.
- The description of the entity in the script is as follows
"An alien, to be sure, but nothing we've seen so far, its forelegs arch
out of its back like spiders legs, its back legs set on enormous
haunches, thick and powerful.
Its head is long, eyeless, like the others, but along its white expanse
red veins, coming out of the skin and running like thick black hairs to
the back.
It has retracted pincers at the side of head that come out when its
tongue does.
Its much bigger the the others, nearly the size of the queen herself.
And it's bone white." It's method of killing involves draining the blood as shown here when it kills a soldier
"pincers SWING out and pin either side of his head.. His eyes go wide as: Its tongue SHOOTS into his throat. Stays there, and we watch it drain the blood from his body. We can see it, see its stomach swell, red tinged, as his body goes"
