The Thing, easily. Xenomorphs can be taken out easily by gunfire and I think I read a long time ago that from the moment they "hatch" they're slowly decaying and dying because the acid they use for blood is breaking down their body. Besides, without a Queen they're just drones. I mean, just look at Aliens. One stupid decision, going into the reactor site with no ammo, is the only reason the aliens even had a shot. Otherwise the USCM would have wiped the floor with the Xenomorphs.

Now if I was being personally stalked and hunted by the Predator then that would be a hell of a lot more scary than a Xenomorph or the Thing.

As far as what's scarier on a global scale, it's the Thing easily. I never understood Ripley's fear about "just one of those things" reaching Earth. It would get its arse kicked in a matter of minutes.
