As I understand it
the poster designer was under pressure to get something out in zero time and hadn't seen any of the movie or props but was told it was about an alien agg hatching onto an astronauts face and there were lots of them in a sort of huge cavern thing, so he went with this as a representation as he had nowt better to go on and thought it best to just make it a sort of generic interpretable representation rather than anything recognisable or specific to what people might see in the movie.
But it is just a macro shot of loose hewn Hessian and a chicken egg with lumpy bits on it, the 'light crack' is superimposed afterwards and was a crack shape with smoke blown at it coloured green.
Nothing at ALL to do with the movie except in the vaguest of allusionary terms.
Quite why it's considered a design classic now is beyond me.

Well honest as a poster or not it does look ominous.
Personally I've always liked it because it was vague, simple and a little bit scary. I agree to an extent it's slightly annoying as it doesn't have that melted checkered checkered flooring or upside down eggs in the film but I'm almost irritated more that it doesn't have any of those features since I've always liked the look of them.
If I'm going to be a massive advocate/apologist for it I might as well suggest a thought that since in the film the titular character isn't always so clearly seen te vagueness of the poster sort of reflects the uncertainty of what is seen.

I have a vague memory
of there being an alternate version with an even more literal interpretation that had an actual cardboard eggbox with eggs in place of the hessian, but happily for the designer I think that one has gotten lost to history before the interwebs came along to store it for ridicule forever.
