They Live
Directed by
John Carpenter
Our June collection of alien invasion movies kicks into high gear with John Carpenter’s transcendent action-horror satire of Reagan-era values, which has lost none of its relevance (or pure entertainment value) in the ensuing decades.
Nada (Roddy Piper), a wanderer without meaning in his life, discovers a pair of sunglasses capable of showing the world the way it truly is. As he walks the streets of Los Angeles, Nada notices that both the media and the government are comprised of subliminal messages meant to keep the population subdued, and that most of the social elite are skull-faced aliens bent on world domination. With this shocking discovery, Nada fights to free humanity from the mind-controlling aliens.
