John Carpenter visionary director of cult classics Escape from New York and The Thing presents a startling sci-fi dystopia - a world where They influence our decisions without us knowing, They numb our senses without us feeling it, They control our lives without us realising it - a world where They Live! It is a weary existence for John Nada (Roddy Piper) living in the slums and labouring to get by. Befriended by co-worker Frank (Keith David), their lives are measured by frustration and despair set against the desperation of an economic downturn. When John discovers a unique pair of sunglasses that allow him to see the truth, he realises aliens have not only infiltrated society but are hell-bent on taking over the entire world. With an underground movement in place, it's time for Nada to muscle up end make a stand against the alien foes and fight the subliminal machinations of the status quo before it's too late.
