    It's about aliens who are trying to take over the planet and who have hypnotized everyone through subliminal messages transmitted through television, magazines, posters, and movies. "OBEY, CONFORM, REPRODUCE, DO NOT QUESTION AUTHORITY" etc etc...

    The main character is played by Roddy Piper who finds a pair of special sunglasses which allows him to see the aliens and all the subliminal messages (as above). Basically, he kicks ass and the aliens lose.

    Sounds terrible but a classis 80's movie.

    I like the "reproduce", easy for men to obey. hate the barriers.

    Great 80's movie. So much like Watchtower control and what most JW's actually look like behind the pretty clothes, fake smiles and judgemental superior attitudes. The quote below is considered one of the all-time best movie quotes.
