Best fight scene EVER...... Plus honestly the way I see the world running these days I wouldnt wonder if aliens were doing exactly that to us.

I am glad Roddy Piper got the break of his life to star in that. I WISH more Hollywood types would consider doing movies with WWF wrestlers.

loved it then and still do Piper's the man

One of my all time favorites. Plus it has Keith David in it, an actor that I always enjoy seeing in films, he's such a class act!

I'm kind of surprised it hasn't been remade yet.

It seems like the kind of movie that's begging for a remake.

I keep hearing rumors of a remake but still nothing has come up. Strange because it's a very X-Files type of concept but preceded X-Files by quite a few years.

Isn't that fight scene between Piper and Keith the longest fight scene in a film ever?

The first movie I remember him in was "Platoon" and he was my favorite character because he was one of the few that made sense when everything was catawampus:

Chris (Charlie Sheen): It's the way the whole thing works, people like Elias get wasted, people like Barnes just go on making up the rules any way they want. So what do we do? Sit in the middle and suck on it. We just don't add up to dry ****, King.

King (Keith David): Whoever said we did, man? All you got to do is make it out of here. It's all gravy, everyday the rest of your life, gravy.

He has a voice that was made for documentaries, as well. Probably the top of a list that includes James Earl Jones, Peter Graves, Edward Hermann, etc....

He was perfect as The Centre in "New Frontier" and as the Narrator for "Comic Book Superheroes Unmasked".
