Phallus dentatus is a term first attested in J. H. Kavanagh's 1980 essay “Son of a Bitch: Feminism, Humanism, and Science in Alien” in connection with the Alien monster. On the the famous John Hurt alien monster birth scene he wrote:
- A “particularly horrifying confusion of the sexual-gyneacological with the gastro-intestinal,” in which “a razor toothed phallic monster gnaws its way through his stomach into the light—a kind of science fiction phallus dentatus.”
