Description

When, everywhere you turn, the world is pushing you in the wrong direction sometimes you just have to DIS-Obey.

One of the great under-rated films of the 80's was the Roddy Piper star-vehicle "They Live". Disguised as a mindless action flick and an excuse to cash in on Roddy's Wrestlemania-fueled popularity, "They Live" was actually a scathing commentary on the societal poisons of blind consumerism, conformity, and oppression.

It's a movie that has held up well, now for decades, and seems to get more and more relevant with each passing year.

Thanks to Richard Pace for capturing the essence of Roddy (who was a great guy who we lost too soon) and the essence of the film's central message. Love it.
