I first saw this film streamed on my phone. I really enjoyed it. The film kind of reflects the situation we are in today. We are told what to ware, read, watch eat and do. Just some of use have woken up and have learnt to do things our own way. That doesn't mean us that have woken are better as it is probably easier to stay asleep and get on with life that way. For an 80s classic by none other than John Carpenter, this eye opener is a lot of fun and nicely put together. So if you want that old school 80s movie hit then I'd put this on for sure. So glad I got one of Zavvi's limited edition Steelbook, I really like the art work, it says a lot about the film. If they have any left and you like this sort of film then snap one up and maybe put a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses on and be part of the movie. Enjoy.

O.K ...Ordered this little gem from Zavvi and in no time it was in my hands,from U.K to New Zealand in under 7 days,the steelbook itself is beautiful and would look amazing in anyones steelbook collection...however buyer beware as this is the studio canal release,the information slip surrounding the steelbook informs you that the audio is DTS Master Audio 5.1,you will soon discover that this is not the case but in fact you are greeted with a DTS Stereo mix only,huge let down for me as really the correct audio should have been printed on the slipcase...the good points otherwise are a fantastic H.D picture plus all the extras that are available on the Shout Factory Region A locked release are on this version as well..if it was not for the audio and the incorrect information on the slipcase I would say perfect however this problem needs to be fixed as I am sure there will many other of you out there who might be a little dissapointed as I was with the incorrect audio. If you are looking for the 5.1 DTS Master Audio versions you will either have to purchase the Shout Factory release or the Umbrella region B release which although does not have all the extras it does come with the audio 5.1 as stated.

One of John Carpenter's most interesting films, with a great performance from former wrestler Roddy Piper. The steelbook itself is basic but striking with Roddy donning the special glasses on the front. An essential purchase for any Carpenter fan!

Up to now I have three steelbooks of Carpenters classics and They Live is one of them. It is an underrated gem of a movie and was done on a pretty low budget at the time, as are most of Carpenters movies. As far as Sci-Fi Action movies go They Live is one of the best in its genre, loads of humour and the best performance from a wrestler turned actor in Roddy Piper as the lead role John Nada, with Keith David also doing great probably as good as he was in the other Sci-Fi classic of Carpenters I'm sure you will know which that one is. Overall if you are going to own a steelbook of a classic then you couldn't go wrong by Getting They Live.

Very good idea for Zavvi to make a steelbook of not so famous movie Watching "They Live" nowadays looks like a premonition. This SciFi movie foretold the actual consume society and way of life as if we were run by Aliens. The only regret about this movie is that I can't help imagine how I'd prefer it if the hero was played by Kurt Russel the usual John Carpenter's favorite actor. The Blu Ray is quite good without flaws I could noticed and you have many choice of languages and subtitle (English, French, Spanish,...) for both (dubbed and subtitle). Which is not said and very important for a french like me. By the way the french title movie is "Invasion Los Angeles"

Great movie. I hadn't seen it since I was a kid and that was on vhs. The blue ray transfer is brilliant and really brings the movie up to date.
