budget film.  Edwin Neal (qv), who spent the 1980s traveling extensively to  science fiction and movie conventions selling movie memorabilia,  always claimed that he was the one responsible for getting Giger  involved; however, in Gigers book "Necronomicon II," Giger says  that director Ronald W. Moore (qv) was with whom he dealt. Giger  goes on to say that he felt manipulated by Moore, who told him in  tears that the film would lose its financing without the Giger  poster. Whatever the case, the original art did eventually end up in  Neals possession, along with numerous other prints and portfolios  by Giger, lending credence to Neals claims of involvement.
