You wouldn't think ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'', a series of slasher style movies [[RecycledInSpace IN SPACE]] would have much humor, you'd be wrong.

Added DiffLines:

* The scene of the Chestburster scurrying across the table can come off as {{Narm}} due to how silly it looks as it wiggles away.


Added DiffLines:

* The Alien dangling outside the ship can be quite funny due to the SpecialEffectFailure in that one shot, especially when it then bumps into the ship with a dull thud.

* The BrickJoke over Jones the cat. When they go searching for the infant ChestBurster, Parker, Brett and Ripley get startled by [[CatScare Jones.]] With Brett not catching him, because it wasn't the ChestBurster. Parker berating Brett at first, but going into hysterical laughter when Brett said it was only Jones, which causes them all to laugh. When Brett goes to look for Jones, it seems like Jones is [[CatsAreMean only being a jerk, hissing and not moving from its spot.]] [[MoodWhiplash However it becomes]] [[RightBehindYou scary when the]] [[NightmareFuel alien now grown is behind Brett before his demise.]] The cat is never seen again until near the end, when Ripley has to race against both the countdown and the alien before the ship blows.

* Brett and Parker have some rather humorous moments in the stage play, especially with annoying Ripley while they're repairing the ship. They also tend to lean on the fourth wall a little bit, with this gem being especially funny.

-->'''Brett''': Hey, Parker. Ever feel like we're in a horror movie where everyone dies in the end?
