They influence our decisions without us knowing it. They numb our senses without us feeling it. They control our lives without us realizing it. They live.

Horror master John Carpenter directs this heart-pounding thriller where aliens are systematically gaining control of the earth by masquerading as humans and lulling the public into submission. Humanity's last chance lies with a lone drifter who stumbles upon a harrowing discovery: a unique pair of sunglasses that reveal the terrifying and deadly truth.
