3. for me it's "the thing"
i think it's clearly his most accomplished film. however, i will always have a soft spot in my heart for "they live" and there is absolutely no arguing that "escape from NY", "starman", "dark star" and "halloween" are particularly great films as well.

5. What's that from?

6. They Live
Edited on Fri Mar-26-04 07:00 PM by slackmaster
Excellent sci-fi freakout "everything you know is wrong" film.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/

I would have voted for it, but it doesn't have Adrienne Barbeau.

9. "Either put on these glasses or start eating that trash can!"
What he said!

Longest and best damn fight in the history of Cinema. Rowdy Roddy Piper vs. Keith David.

EPIC!

Worth a rental, or a purchase. (it's back out and available on DVD)

No Adrienne Barbeau; I give you that.
