The Faculty Is the Most 1998 Movie Ever - Xenomania 90
from Xenomania · host Martin Kearns
In Part I of Xenomania's The Faculty, we're heading back to Herrington High to talk Robert Rodriguez, Kevin Williamson, the extremely '90s soundtrack, and one absolutely stacked cast. Does The Faculty still hold up? Are any of these teachers believable? Why is Usher here? Is Zeke actually cool? And would you really buy drugs from Josh Hartnett? Plus, we put Robert Rodriguez's filmography through Slash or Stash. In Part II of Xenomania's The Faculty, we're digging into the monster gimmick, the homemade drugs, the alien queen, and why the movie's second half doesn't work nearly as well for some of us as the first. We also tackle the huge influence of The Thing and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, some wildly divided audience reviews, and finally our Top Fives. So, after 28 years, is The Faculty still a cult classic, or is nostalgia keeping it alive?
