Our judges really liked the creative poses of which Alien B was capable, compared to the static positioning of Alien A. Overall the judges found Alien A was too human in appearance to be interesting, while Alien B was clearly inhuman and therefore spookier.

Winner: B

Winner: B

Winner: B

Alien B

While Alien A (submitted anonymously) won points with our panel for being done without the backing of a major studio, the clear winner is Alien B, created by Steve Johnson's XFX company for Showtime's Roswell telefilm.

Congratulations to both our contestants!
