Review of They Live (1988) by Duncan L — 09 Aug 2010
I enjoyed this movie as one of the rare and good science fiction actioner from John Carpenter himself. Starring Roddy Piper as the lead together with Keith David, this testosterone about an out of work man discovers that aliens are hidden among the human beings based and only to discover them by wearing sunglasses.
The pacing is slightly slow as it was trying to get where the movie is needed to be and the fun part only begins in the 2nd 1/2 of the film. With the purpose of exposing the aliens, I felt the movie has a potential for a sequel but alas there is none.
Still, this is one movie science fiction fans will truly enjoy.
