That movie has the best fight scene, just two dudes fighting over a pair of glasses, no flashy bullshit, just a good old fight.
its a real time fight, watch it again and notice how long the cuts are and how long the scene is
it is a true masterpiece and all because the main actor could stage a fight
If memory serves me right, Roddy piper fought to keep it like that, the director wasn’t sure untill he watched it and left it as is.
You should always trust someone like Rowdy Roddy Piper when it comes to choreographing a fight.
And mildly gay
All movie fights are somewhat homoerotic, I thought that’s why people liked them, hell that’s why I like them.
It doesnt even have to be a fight, 1980’s moves loved the somewhat homoerotic joke
THOSE AREN’T PILLOWS!!!
Fun fact: the infamous “cripple fight” from South Park is a shot-for-shot remake of the fight scene from They Live
I saw it for the first time a few years ago and was crying tears of laughter. It’s absolutely brilliant.
Now go watch the “cripple fight” episode of South Park for a fun treat!
They Live is the truth!
Obey! Consume!
I felt that way about watching the human centipede which I did by total accident. It is constantly being referenced and I would never have understood any of it. I literally heard a refence to it in the past couple of days.
Rowdy Roddy Piper was great in that movie!
