They Live

They Live (1988)
Dir: John Carpenter

A man stumbles across some sunglasses that help him see that the world is run by aliens.
Classic sci-fi from John Carpenter back when he was at his best. It's a good concept that is well realised, the scenes where the real world is revealed manage to be creepy and humorous at the same time. It has some odd moments and the acting isn't great, but it's all done with such enthusiasm you can't help but enjoy it.
