The Faculty (1998)
Fantastic fun sci-fi horror thriller from the late 90s - ENJOY!
The Faculty is one of my all time favorite movies. From the start I want to let you know that I could be a little biased, it probably isn't the best movie of all time but I have such fond memories from the first time I saw it. I watched it in the cinema on a class trip to Stockholm with a bunch of friends when I was 14-15 years old and I thought it was awesome! Since then every time I watch this I just have the best time.
The story could be described as a different and more modern take on "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". It also has some elements from Scream and other horror/thrillers from the same era.
This movie captures so many things that I enjoy. It nails the late 90s feel with the music and how people dress. It doesn't take it self too serious. It has some twist and turns. The visuals are really great even by today's standard.
It has some great established actors such as Salma Hayek, Robert Patrick, Jon Stewart and Famke Janssen. And it also have a lot of actors who were in the beginning of their career like Jordana Brewster, Josh Hartnett and Elijah Wood.
From what I understand this movie is fairly unknown to most people. I have never met a person in real life who have seen it or even heard of it. I really want people to see this movie and just have fun. Don't take it to seriously. Just dim the lights, pump up the volume, sit back and enjoy this fun sci-fi horror/thriller! :)
