Anniversary: 35 Years

Genre: Horror, Sci-Fi, Action

Director: John Carpenter

Writer: Ray Nelson, John Carpenter

Stars: Roddy Piper, Keith David, Meg Foster, George ‘Buck’ Flower, Peter Jason

Co: Universal Pictures

Summary: They influence our decisions without us knowing it. They numb our senses without us feeling it. They control our lives without us realizing it. They Live. Horror master John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing) directs this heart-pounding thriller in which aliens are systematically gaining control of the Earth by masquerading as humans and lulling the public into submission. Humanity’s last chance lies with a lone drifter who stumbles upon a harrowing discovery—a unique pair of sunglasses that reveals the terrifying and deadly truth.

IMDb Rating: 7.2/10

Release Date: 11/4/1988

Taglines:

  • “I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass…and I’m all out of bubblegum.”
  • Obey or else – alien invasion of the subliminal kind…
  • They control what you see. They decide what you hear. You think they’re people just like you. You’re wrong. Dead wrong.
  • Who are they? And what do they want?
  • You see them on the street. You watch them on TV. You might even vote for one this fall. You think they’re people just like you. You’re wrong. Dead wrong.

Trivia:

  • Roddy Piper, being a married man at the time of filming, refused to take his wedding band off. That’s why in several scenes you can see a wedding ring on.

Trivia:

  • Columbia Pictures originally intended this film as a direct sequel to Dracula (1931), but when Universal threatened a plagiarism suit, Columbia went ahead and made the film anyway but changed the names of the characters to avoid any connection with “Dracula”. It also held back its release for two months so as not to compete with Lon Chaney Jr.‘s Son of Dracula (1943).
