A conspiracy theory to end all conspiracy theories, They Live provides a satisfying conclusion to John Carpenter’s white-hot 80s — a legendary run from the B-movie king. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper stars as a thinly veiled version of himself, a hunky Cassandra whose sunglasses reveal the subliminal messages of our capitalist alien overlords. This pulsing camp classic creates a pop iconography for the ages, one whose eternal relevance continues to shock.
