what hell are you these
extraterrestrials are out of this world
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 most memorable alien races in film
exactly we’re dealing with here number
10
prawns district 9 kicking off our list
are the intergalactic refugees that
arrived over Johannesburg in search of
humanitarian aid sadly this lands them
in a shanty town that borders on the
edge of human tolerance as creatures
that resemble a hybrid of a bug and a
crustacean they are anything but cute
but their living conditions and plight
tug at our heartstrings it’s depressing
but the prawns probably would have been
treated better if they were more
attractive I mean you can’t say they
don’t look like that that’s what they
look like they look like prawns number 9
newcomers alien nation on the other hand
these refugees are taken into society as
taxpaying citizens and that’s probably
because they look almost human
I’m that fence yeah and he’s made a
rubber it stretches right and still it
fits except the newcomers have two
hearts no visible ears and bald craniums
with spots they manage to hold steady
jobs and even seduce James Caan but they
don’t exactly fit in which might be due
to their mysterious past that is filled
with tales of genetic modification and
slave labor I iodine it number eight the
arachnids Starship Troopers every school
kid knows that our records are dangerous
these interstellar bugs have made life
difficult for humanity by fleeing plasma
at earth we would never even consider
this disgusting species of immigrants
these huge and menacing bugs are divided
into several castes including the
workers that dig tunnels the warriors
that serve in the infantry the brain bug
that leads the colonies and the queen
that produces its members would you like
to know more number 7 the Navi avatar
this primitive race inhabits the lush
jungle moon of Pandora if there is a
hell you might want to go there for some
R&R after a tour on Pandora there blue
skinned cat like 10 feet tall have large
amber eyes and share a special
connection with their world they also
fly on the back of mountain banshees and
fling Spears at pesky humans just find
out what the blue monkeys want any alien
race that inspires fans to paint
themselves blue learn its language and
attempt to join their ponytails to trees
is memorable in our book number 6
Ewoks star wars these fuzzy little teddy
bears are also simple hunters and
gatherers but from the forest moon of
Endor they live in tree huts celebrate
in style and happen to be very adorable
not only that they also help take down
the evil Galactic Empire that’s right
bitches all it takes is logs and Spears
number 5 the Borg Star Trek no 1 alien
race makes up the board
this species assimilates captives into
the collective by merging and
controlling them with technology we are
the Borg lower your shields and
surrender your ships we will add your
biological and technological
distinctiveness to our own your culture
will adapt
this US resistance is futile all
remnants of individuality are stripped
away to make drones that speak with one
voice members of the Borg don’t know
anything about fear or compassion and
are best known for riding around in
nearly unstoppable cubes given the
Queen’s look resistance is futile
is that good for you number four
Klingons Star Trek before the na’vi
fanboys learn to speak Klingon
this fierce warrior race doesn’t throw
spears they use retractable blades bat
less and cloaked warbirds Klingons are
best known for their poor hygiene ribbed
foreheads unshakable sense of honour you
would need the man I would kill you
where you stand and ability to quote
Shakespeare to be
they were originally created as a sci-fi
counterpart for the Russian people
during the Cold War but if since been
recast as Earth’s allies number three
predators predator you’d have to be
Arnold Schwarzenegger to even think
about surviving the encounter with this
alien species these guys make the
Klingons look like a bunch of sissies
predators only care about the thrill of
the hunt and collecting skulls as
trophies
sure they’re not above using traps
thermal vision active camouflage and
self-destructing bombs but even with a
blade they beat utterly deadly have you
seen them without their masks on yikes
what do the ladies look like okay who’s
next number two
ETS et the extra-terrestrial this race
of alien botanists likes to collect
flora samples especially ones that look
like nipples their best recognized by

alien species guaranteed to make you
need an underwear change Swiss
surrealist and artist H R Giger designed
this acid blooded alien species to have
a biomechanical appearance a set of twin
jaws and blade tip tails perfect
organism xenomorphs are born to host
