John Carpenter’s “They Live” is an interesting Sci-Fi film.
Released in 1988, “They Live” chronicles a time where the American middle class is being reduced to poverty and the gap between the Haves and Have-nots is greater than ever before.
In Carpenter’s tale, the downturn of America’s working class is the result of a well planned strategy created by an invading skull-faced civilization from another planet, and a coalition of the elite, most powerful businessmen and politicians on Earth.
Not surprisingly the general public is kept in the dark through a constant stream of subliminal signals, stealthy messages and propaganda broadcast through state-controlled television. Only our hero, former professional wrestler Roddy Piper, and a small band of freedom fighters know the truth.

Columnist Mike Baxter sees an eery similarity between the Liberals running our nation and the skull-faced Aliens in the John Carpenter film, "They Live" - Where is Rowdy Roddy Piper when we need him the most?

They Live.... the apex of the cinematic career of Rowdy Roddy Piper, and featuring the quintessential John Carpenter score.

I thought you meant
To Live, a movie about when the commies took over China and all of the stupid things they did. Reminds me of D. C. right now.

The outrageous behavior by many of those in power today bears no similarity to those men and women who made this country the greatest in history. It’s time to let the “aliens” in DC know that a new hope and change are coming in the next Congressional election. Sheila Jackson-Lee - are you and your cronies listening…? I give 1 in 5 odds that the Dems will cancel the 2010 elections because of a "national emergency" they create.

Seriously, what’s with the fifteen minute pointless fight scene that rounds the movie out to 93 minutes?

Yes, that had to be the longest fight scene ever. But when they both “got a room” in the hotel afterwards, now that was priceless.

Roddy Piper had to showcase some of his “wrastling” moves :)
