No serieously.
As kid something that had me on the edge of my seat when I watched it was the monster that represented Bealon's fear, as it followed the crewmembers from underneath the catwalk.
By the way, my biggest fear too is to get tentacle-raped by a giant insect. -

I was also traumatized by the movie when I saw it in a theater as a kid.
I watched it 3 or 4 times aven writing down names and causes of death - so I know exactly the scene you are talking about.
What's so creepy about it is the editing.
Englund is running along the corridors, the camera moves along, but with each cut you don't realize if it is his point of view or not.
Doors open, and the camera moves through or you suddenly see him running in a medium shot.
Then finally a door opens and you see the close-up of the burnt face.
Then cut to Englund's face who expresses the kind of raw terror that the over-cool actors of today's films simply do not achieve anymore.
The music is creepy beyond belief too.
Great movie!!! -

I think I found a still shot from the scene you're talking about. Here it is, and it's still pretty effective face to scare you when the doors just open and there it is.

Don't expect it to tango; it has a broken back. -

I just re-watched this movie the other night. Yes, it is Grace Zabriskie's character (the Captain of the ship) who gets toasted. You see her burned corpse falling forward. It's pretty gruesome, but frankly, for the most horrifying moment in this great late-night movie, you can't beat the sexy gal getting raped to death by a giant maggot.

I saw this in a theater as an adult, and I had to hide my eyes a couple of times. For me the scariest moment was when the commander went down the hole and ended up getting sucked dry by the big space leaches/worms or whatever they were.
Disgusting and creepy! -

The scene you remember is where the captain goes to the airlock to fight the creatures who came along from the Hesperiades(sp). Ranger(Robert Englund) and Core(Ray Walston) see the event on the monitor. Ranger goes running to help and opens airlock. The captain's lifeless burnt body falls on him. BTW you can probably thank James Cameron for the creepy effects in movie. He figured out how to make the effects work on screen.

I saw this on HBO or Prism as a kid, because I had a crush on Erin and was hoping she showed boob since it was R. I was freaked out by her head getting crushed, especially since I assumed she would survive. Who thought they would kill off Joannie Cunningham?
