Revealing mistake: During the big fight scene, you can tell easily that Frank is wearing knee pads (try looking when his pant leg is wet). Construction workers will often wear knee pads for work but most often they wear them on the outside of the pants to save the knees of their pants. (00:58:50)
They Live (1988)
1 picture
Directed by: John Carpenter
Starring: Keith David, Meg Foster, George 'Buck' Flower, Roddy Piper
Continuity mistake: In the big fight scene, Roddy Piper and Keith David are wrestling and struggling about and land so the black guy's pants are getting soaking wet. In the very next shot as the fight continues, his pants are dry. (00:58:55)
Trivia: Roddy Piper and Keith David decided to fight for real, only faking the punches to the face.
Question: How does wearing the sunglasses allow the wearer to hear the speakers broadcasting the "sleep" command?
