They Live

I always wondered why RRP never became a bigger action star after this movie. Thought he would have a solid future as a B-level star.

When he calls the woman in the grocery store formaldehyde face I lose it.

I love the end scene (and that chick has a very nice rack) - "What's wrong baby?"

There's a cool movie podcast called I Was There Too that features one of the supporting charactera who dishes a little about the movie.

I'd wondered the same thing, but when I heard some podcasts with him in his final years, he really seemed out of it...made me wonder how long he was battling disease and/or illness before then. Maybe a full load on a movie set would've been too much, I dunno. He kept getting minor work 'tho, so apparently people were still willing to work with him, albeit on a smaller scale. I did hear the only reason he stuck with the WWF for so long was so he could get his pension at 65, which of course he died before then...
