The Faceburster only appears in the 1980 unofficial Alien sequel, Alien 2: On Earth. Resembling a Chestburster, this creature erupts from the host's face, rather than the chest.
Appearence
Edit
The Faceburster resembles the Chestburster at first glance, but when fully exposed, they look like a piece of meat crossed with a worm. They have long tails that they use to slice off victim's heads.
Trivia
Edit
- While Alien 2: On Earth has nothing to do with the official franchise, the idea of an alien erupting from someone's face was later used in Alien Resurrection, when a Chestburster emerges from Purvis and bursts through Dr. Wren's head, erupting from his face, as the two struggle. The particular Chestburster responsible has been referred to as "the Faceburster" by the film's crew and fans, although anatomically it is no different from a standard Chestburster.
