What sci-fi movie has the most genuinely, uncannily "alien" aliens?

I mean technically the xeno just imitates the anatomy of its host, so while it has a grotesque exterior there can be a familiar element to the form.

That in itself is uncanny. It not only uses you as an incubator it adapts to get better at it by gradually assuming your form. Freaky

No? Something isn't canon if it only appears in one out of a dozen movies and it's the weakest movie which is rightfully discarded

When the representation is too uncanny, they come off as non-literal representations of human psychology rather than genuine attempts to depict possible life-forms.

I don't know about the films, but in the Solaris book there's a bunch of detail about the planet's "ocean" being one giant living thing, which induces the hallucinations.

Another one that hasn't been filmed yet is Sun Diver, which features beings made of plasma living in the outer layers of the sun.
