They Live opened just before election day, 1988 as the nation's number one movie, then vanished.

Why?

I walk you through the making of this film as well as 1980s history and a president's tenure that moved John Carpenter to respond with a scathing assessment of yuppies, the decade and Reagan himself.

B Harrison Smith, director of Death House, Camp Dread and writer of The Fields walks you through the making of this film.
