Roddy Piper is a gem!

I did like the character quite alot, even though he wasn't the greatest actor (He was a famous Canadian wrestler) However, I do agree that the final act of the film isn't its strong point. Not because of the main character though, it just sort of felt like they didn't know how to execute the conclusion, as if they had it roughly outlined, but just got sloppy with it.

Oh, don’t have any issue with the actual actor, just really don’t like the writing for the character. And that makes a LOT of sense that he’s a wrestler because he is SHREDDED. Another movie your comment reminded me of is “They Look Like People”. Similar concept to “They Live” and the ending just kind of peters out in a way that feels like they didn’t know how to close the movie out or had their budget cut or something.
