New Stuff: Assault on Precinct 13

 

They Live (1988)

 

A wanderer without meaning in his life, discovers a pair of sunglasses capable of showing the world the way it truly is.

Modest and obviously low-budget sci-fi thriller is clearly meant to be a mild satire and social commentary, but the alien aspect of the story turns it more into a wild conspiracy theory, spiced with a lot of gung-ho action.

Halliwell (no star): "A standard action film with an uncertain tone, as if it started out to be something more interesting."

Maltin**: "Satiric sci-fi adventure begins well, degenerates into urban action piece, not helped by awful alien make-up."
