One behind-the-scenes detail, revealed in Alien's audio commentary, makes the twist that Ash (Ian Holm) is actually an android much more terrifying.
A behind-the-scenes detail in Ridley Scott's Alien makes the twist that the ship's science officer, Ash , is secretly an android much scarier. Set on the space freighter Nostromo, Alien follows the ship's crew as they investigate a distress signal of unknown origin. Onboard the alien spacecraft they discover, executive officer Kane is attacked by a Facehugger.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY However, this event is not Ash's only villainous action in Alien. Later in the film's runtime, he attempts to kill Ripley with a rolled-up magazine after she discovers that the distress signal was a setup and the crew is considered expendable. Chief engineer Parker stops Ash from murdering Ripley by clubbing his head clean off, revealing that Ash is an android.
This means that secretly every Weyland-Yutani ship has a potential monster aboard, whether they encounter any Xenomorphs or not. If the Nostromo hadn't encountered the distress signal, it would have only been a matter of time until the company sent a different ship to secretly bring a Xenomorph back to Earth, unbeknownst to any human crew members. The Ash android twist, not being a unique event, makes Alien all the more terrifying.
Why Weyland-Yutani Corporation Ships All Having Robots Is So Scary The horrifying implications of every Weyland-Yutani spacecraft having a potentially murderous android like Ash aboard make the Alien universe even more terrifying. It exemplifies how little regard the powerful corporation has for the workers that keep the company operational. The frightening outcomes of having a company android aboard every Weyland-Yutani ship extend beyond sabotage and murder.
Throughout the Alien film series, Weyland-Yutani is shown to have no reservations about getting people killed. Therefore, this could mean that any workers not towing the company line could be secretly killed by the android aboard their ship. The reveal in the film's audio commentary that Ash being an android is not unique to the Nostromo, but is a company-wide policy, makes Alien even more terrifying.
