Saw "Alien" when it opened with a lady acquaintance. She darn near tore my arm off by twisting on it during the tenser moments.

Tell me about it.
My wife is normally quiet and an animal lover. She would run the car off the road to miss a squirrel or rabbit.
During the part where Ripley is looking for the cat after setting the self-destruct timer, and the Alien is looking for her, my wife says she remembers someone standing and yelling at the screen, "Forget the damn cat. Get the hell out of there."
She looked around and realized it was her!
My problem was, it was so out of character for her, that I couldn't stop snickering for the rest of the movie.
I think the rest of the audience thought we were both nuts.
