Xenomorphs, definitely.

In my opinion they have the best monster design in all of cinema, designed from the bottom up to be eerily disturbing in a multitude of ways.

[EDIT] Wait, I forgot entirely about Lovecraft's creations, damn, now it's a really tough question.

The Combine. They reduce their unlikeliness by never showing up until Ep. 2, and just use propaganda, mind control, and a brutal police state to enslave humanity.

Now that is classy.

Looking at my avatar, you might think 'Nidz, but I actually like Zerg more.

As of finishing Crysis II, I'm suprised I haven't seen anyone say Ceph...I thought they were pretty cool myself.

The Many, from System Shock 2 (hive-mind parastic alien race that spreads via fungal infection and takes over the host, but with a Gaia-like state of consciousness whereby they are trying to free humanity from war and turmoil, while still retaining a sense of identity within the 'collective'. Like a cross between the Borg and the necromorphs from Dead Space, except with a much more sympathetic point of view. It's the spiritual predecessor of Bioshock, but much harder, MUCH scarier and with much more developed rpg aspects - separate skill and tech trees, play as a science/repair-based techie character or a psi-ops as well as shooter builds. Like Bioshock it has kind of a pseudo-intellectual slant to it, in SS2 it's about individualism (in the form of the villain AI SHODAN from the previous game returning) vs collectivism (in term of the game's other villain, The Many).

How has no one said Time Lords yet? D:

I'm sorry.

That doesn't look like an alien to me.
"But, you look human!"
"No, you look Timelord, we were here first!"
Yea seriously... two hearts... from galifray... Able to regenerate whole body... Able to share all experience with another person by bumping heads... ABLE to literally "see" time... you sir need to watch some more WHO...
This, this, and more this. In the words of the Doctor, "ALLONS Y!"
