Raped By A Space Jockey

maybe holloway is the father

It is indeed Holloway...he is her boyfriend, the shot in the trailer where we see him sitting on the bed with her in it is important..you can tell he is stressed and worried...he has been infected...

Ewwwwwwwwww.

I can't hold my tongue any longer about....this...rape talk. I think ridley has more taste and class than to even imply that a huge humanoid alien would have forcible sexual intercourse with a character in the movie, let alone have that horrible image shown on screen. This isn't some bullshit horror movie like 'The hills have eyes' or some twisted anime porn cartoon.

I agree with you Eight-Five....Holloway and Shaw have a relationship, clear by the trailer, they sleep with each, post infection on Holloway...no physical signs that can be noticed by other crew members..yet, unknowingly to Shaw, she has been impregnated, I highly doubt they have condoms on the Prometheus...but Shaw trust him, she loves him....He infects her, even he does not know... He later mutates into probably what see in the trailer, the humanoid hovering over Shaw is probably Holloway...i willingly to bet that...

thanks cain1977 you have confirmed my suspicions. Holloway gets infected as clearly shown in trailer when he's looking in the mirror at his eyes. The only question is did he alone choose to sleep with Shaw or does the parasite/infection have something to do with it. come on 1st of June

You...you do realize this ...this is what's already been shown on screen. In close up. Graphically.

I'd be compelled to think, it starts off as comforting her, she is all messed up and he comforts her and one thing leads to another, they sleep with each other, Holloway, well, he is not feeling like himself, he had a traumatic experience in the cave a life changing one...being infected and slowly on the inside, he is changing, probably having Giger nightmares when he closes his eyes...

Yeah... All gross like Gina Davis in "The Fly."

I like to think Shaw gets no pain meds or is knocked out when the creature is removed from her stomach....and quite messy as we see blood all over the medical tube...

Giger nightmares could make for some well messed up imagery, I think i'd have my head in my hands

I would more than likely have my head up my arse if there was hardcore sexual Giger imagery in my nightmares. Scary stuff!

No doctors are willing to talk to Giger...he would mess them up..lol

Another one with rape fantasies ? There are other forums for that ... :(

LOL, he would scar them for life. Yet Giger is afraid of spiders and snakes xD Let some giant spiders and snakes loose in his house xD I could only imagine.

Giger is the most down to earth person, has a kitty and love his mum....

@casey, Yes, I do understand that concept with the facehugger. It's part of why they came up with it in the first place...body horror. But, rape, sexual...penis in vagina along with violence...that's something else altogether. It's not something that I see Ridley would feel needs to be in his film. I'm all for visceral imagery in showing the hostility of reality in space, but I think a scene like that would be overkill and do more harm than good for the film. I don't mean to bring this up, but the movie 'Predators' sucked and when the inmate guy says, "if i make it off this planet, I'm gonna rape me some bitches"...that was just fucking stupid and completely uncalled for. Just my thoughts...you could be right, a lot of people think the alien raped lambert before it killed her. :/

[quote] a lot of people think the alien raped lambert before it killed her. [/quote] I am pretty sure I've heard Ridley Scott brings this up in the Alien commentary. I don't remember exactly: but something about how her death scream was originally longer to imply the Xeno was raping her, but they cut it down. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I seriously doubt that there will be an SJ/human rape scene, but short of that, I do expect some very freaky, rather shocking, psychosexual body-horror.

I too would seriously doubt (especially since this is not PG13 territory) that any alien rape happens in this film (except at a genetic level). The very idea would probably get laughed off the screen as did the mammoth alien maggot rape scene in "[b]Galaxy of Terror[/b]" ! Besides which, that is so 1981 (lol) [url=http://youtu.be/3lPxn6Qg_ls]Your text to link here...[/url]

Creepy, Violent, Harcore, Sexual Body-Horror.

We've been over this before. It's been discussed, to DEATH, so I'm locking this.

Sigismundo, I can't remember whether I saw that on a making of disc or read it in one of the making of books. Basically, what was theorized was that some of the human dna from kane could possibly give the alien a sense of sexuality along with the emotional (sexual) distance the crew members experience on these years long space flights. Some sort of residual drive to mate. I can't remember exactly how it was worded. Might have to dig through the anthology and quadrilogy bonus discs tonight!

Makes you wonder what ridley was referring to when he blatantly said he was embarrassed by some scenes in the film because they are so shocking as seen in the q and a.
