Well, if you take a look at Gigers drawings, the aliens in the first two movies had very similiar builds to that. Their bodies did seem genuinely humanoid...as for the 4th one...I blame the the designers for trying to 'modernise' or spruce up what they saw as an old design. For me that touch of humanity turned them into some sort of corrupted and perverted example of nature, its human features a last remnant of it's unwilling parent.

If it aint broke, why fix it?
