They.Live[1988]DVDRip.Xvid-QAR

My first torrent :-) Description: An economic crisis brings unemployed Nada (Roddy Piper) to L.A. in search of work. What he finds instead is that the ruling elite of the world are aliens in disguise, their aim being to keep humans in a state of mindless consumerism. His discovery comes when he dons a pair of special sunglasses made by a resistance group and sees for the first time reality unadorned. Billboards, store signs, magazine covers--all bear subliminal messages to OBEY, to CONSUME, to have NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT. Money itself says THIS IS YOUR GOD. But worst of all, with these glasses you see which of us are really hideous, bug-eyed aliens. The conceptual breakthrough is hilarious while keeping its roots in darker matters. Although some fault the film for settling into its action plot, the ending has a great payoff. And the direction by John Carpenter is handled with superb workmanlike aplomb. One unforgettable set piece has Piper in a back-alley fistfight with a friend who won't put on the glasses that goes on and on, and just when you think it's over it goes another round. One of the most subversive films ever made in Hollywood, They Live was released on the eve of the 1988 elections. The first TV ads had two hideous alien politicians debating, then one accusing the other of being "No John Kennedy!

Man I'm trying to CleanUP my DVR, and haven't found a good (Efficient, Clean and compressed) way to move shit from it to My PC...
And i wanted to keep a copy of this Cheesy, Yet PowerFully Mezmorizing Movie... LOL
Hope this Torrent is leGit!

ThWar (2007-03-28)

Um . . . Uh . . .
There's no Sound!
I played this in WMP (Windows Media Player), and there's no sound to this puppy!
That SuX! If you know how i could get sound working on it i'd LOVE to know...
I'm not even sure if i should keep seeding it for everyone either... will do for now though.

As it says in the info file, the sound is encoded in ac3, so your windows media player probably doesnt support it. You should try a real media player like VLC media player.

Yeah! VLC rules! Try that and be happily surprised!
Hey, thanks for the movie! I have been searching for this for some time. I only had it on VHS... so, yes, it has been many years since I have seen this wonderful "cheap" movie. Thanx again!

RazorRape (2012-03-01)

Good upload. Try divx+ instead of VLC if you want a better media player.

Funny, this is pretty much what's happening now.
Shame there's none of those magic shades!!

AmbroCode8 (2013-01-21)

Dr_Drassel we do not need magic shades we just have to wake up from this trance and look around us. The shades were just a metaphor.
real-pacman thank you for spreading the word. I have always been interested in learning about secret socities.
evilgold Great download, great movie. Thanks. Works perfect on VLC :)
