DVD's From My Collection: They Live, Directed By John Carpenter (1988)


This film is so ahead of its time; as if Occupy Oakland had scripted a sci-fi action flick. Our muscled working-class hero takes on the ruling-class (aliens in the film) who have been saturating America with brainwashing subliminal messages-Obey, Consume, etc. Forget worthy left-wing art and watch this instead. The clip is when John Nada ('Rowdy' Roddy Powder) realises the full nefarious nature of capitalism.
