Among the contemporary masters of the horror film genre, John Carpenter scared up plenty of chills with his classics such as "Halloween" (1978) and "The Thing" (1982). In "They Live" (1988), Carpenter returned to the realm of sci-fi with the story of drifter John Nada (Roddy Piper) who is working in Los Angeles when he stumbles onto a plot of an alien invasion. Instead of running, Nada joins up with a rebel group to take on the aliens who didn't count on these spunky Angelenos fighting back.

Expert Review:
Another John Carpenter classic, which unbelievably did not launch Rowdy Roddy Piper immediately to stardom. Few films of a sci-fi, horroresque bent are so packed with fun, and it includes the, "… and I'm all out of bubble gum," line. By Marc Eastman of Are You Screening
