10:06 "Hey, Pam, remember when I said this car was death proof? Well, that wasn't a lie. This car is 100% death proof. Only to get the benefit of it, honey, you REALLY need to be sitting in my seat.."

This movie was one of my first introductions to alien movies. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart.

[@the_campfire_official]

This movie is major nostalgia for me. Great review my dude!

[@cameronschmitt649]

the Breakfast Club turned into a scary movie....great movie! it really had fun with itself. also, i didn't go to an inner city high school, so i don't remember quite that much drama. the opening of this movie is some bizarre distortion of highschool, i think, but for a movie that wants to argue alien, final solutions as its arching theme, then i dig it.

[@shelby8101]

Was one of my favorite movies as a child! ( yes my parents literally did not care 😂)

[@blaah9999]

Same! My first movie that I have memory of watching is Aliens. 🤭

[@moxiemaxie3543]

Most of our parents didn't care. Thats why now thats we're adults they're blaming media since TV raised us so they could watch nrw episodes Law and order SVU on time

[@norse_cat]

This was a good movie! I didn't expect who the villain was at the end.

[@mauricea.tillman4956]

The Faculty is an undervalued horror gem that got mistaken for generic "teen-horror." It wasn't groundbreaking but it was an entertaining action-packed version of the Body Snatchers. It was campy but not so much that it parodied itself.

[@ashleynills7507]

Gem*?

Wow. I remember seeing this as a kid (must have been about 7), but a few things always stuck with me: the principal getting attacked with the pencil/scissors, baby Elijah Wood, and the segment with the bleaches closing on the queen. But, wow, it's crazy seeing so many familiar faces in the cast. Baby Usher! Famke Janssen! John Stewart??? Thanks for the delightful review, I think I'd like to rewatch the film again, for old time's sake.

[@rhiannonbeccachickensen6999]

“This is for Frasier!” I’m screaming 😭

[@justuscash7775]

'this bench looks like John Connor'🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TheBeird]

Seen this once in my teens. Liked it. Weird it's not brought up more considering Robert Rodriguez directed it

[@cindywagnerr123]

Absolutely love your videos! I look forward to them, I'll be rewatching a few today❤️❤️

[@jafuni9349]

First time I predicted your bee rating correctly before half-time. Yesssss! And: Kudos, correct assessment, 3.5 bees is adequate. I love Rodriguez’s movies. Btw: I even like his kid’s movies because my children can watch a Rodriguez movie w/o the usual amount of kills and curse words. I actually enjoyed “We could be heroes” myself.

[@neptunevibe]

Posted 58 minutes ago and you already have 431 views? Man you are popular! Cool! I'm happy to see your channel grow. One of my favorites.

[@agnethaladuff8559]

This is a really cool movie where the girls are hot, the aliens are cool and the boys were being boys. The soundtrack is awesome. Great review Bee Man.

[@kelleymaxwell3875]

LOL! I actually have this movie and never knew it! (The only way I can THINK of the girl who lost her head survived is because it reattached to her body. The teachers fingers...did they 're-attach to the teachers hand? If not, there's your answer.) In other news, please give each of your kitty buddies chin scratches for me (especially the tiger stripped one..the first one shown...OMG, looks to e such a love bug!!!

[@Em-wk5ns]

And the moral of this movie is: "Drugs are good" 😂😂😂 Send you and your lovely wife lots of love 😘

[@melissawine8074]

Enjoy your commentary so much . Keep up the good work! PS this channel is alot of fun.

[@pedrosilva9497]

Omg, yes, YEEES I was waiting for you to review this one. Amazing 😍

[@Mr_Rave_UK]

Why am I not surprised by another top review? So I've finally put the bell on for this channel 😁

[@wimvanderstraeten6521]

This is kind of an unofficial remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

[@jamstonjulian6947]

With a touch of The Thing

[@Leo-sd3jt]

It's like Breakfast Club meets The Thing with a happy ending

[@SylvesterAshcroft88]

I'm so glad this channel exists, it makes me realise that even the darkest times, can have an ironic sense of humour! xD

[@lazarusthibodeaux]

Darkness Falls was a movie that traumatized me and it would be great to make fun of.

[@Boggsy.]

The original “Tooth Fairy” design that they scrapped is interesting to look at, too.

[@melissadossantos484]

Is that usher!?!?!

[@paulzenco6182]

Shooter Mcgavin was in it too, i forgot!

[@user-dr2yz8um3d]

The Faculty turns 25! Made $63.2 million The film has a fresh batch of teen actors with quality acting, a terrific score as usual by Marco Beltrami, and makes lots of references to other science-fiction stories It's also got some clever camerawork, a hip soundtrack, and some clever winks of the genre Okay so some might complain this is a direct ripoff of'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' or 'The Thing' and I can see why Some of the CGI is very dated and it doesn't have a consistent tone not to mention the third act taking some misogynistic tropes Yet Robert Rodriguez is a very versatile director so he tries dipping his hand into the teen 90's horror craze that 'Scream' made popular doing a sort of John Hughes meets John Carpenter schtick The characters could be considered outcasts by one could relate to, combining yearning and cynicism and isolation In a way the aliens are a metaphor for these teenagers making their way through the landscape of adults not knowing how to navigate with the only hope being that they have to band together against the chaos This is a cult classic of the time period now from the slang to the wardrobe to the visual effects getting to the core of teenage existence This takes a jab at the class system taking peer pressure to a new level It’s the teenage mindset with plenty of morals around living in a world where everyone can belong, nobody having to be an outcast, all facts are based on some fiction, is everyone hung up on the science portion of these kinds of stories?, is it better to feel no fear no pain no worries in a collective whole, we are tired of being something we are not Rodriguez makes the kind of film with enough pulpy ness and teenage angst with a dash of sci-fi making this quite an underrated gem It’s bad enough high school can be terrifying struggling to survive being alienated but another to have it entirely being taking over by actual extraterrestrials

[@peachcola2]

The lack of usher jokes is sickening 😭

[@phildrewsomething]

i just saw him in this vid and i have absolutely no recollection of him in the film lol

[@quasimodoandfievel1871]

great review as always, NewBee!

[@Irish381]

This was even meta about referring to the puppet masters, and invasion of the body snatchers.

[@lordvlygar2963]

I was in high school when this came out. Definitely not what high schoolers looked like at the time. More of a Hollywood version of high school trends and styles of that time. Very good movie that works great as a double feature with Disturbing Behaviour. I think the ending is a bit of a goof on teen movies where everything is back to normal. It's why Famke Jenssen wears a scarf, to cover the scars of being decapitated.

[@justuscash7775]

One of the first to see this🧐🧐😁I love your work and humor. I have even shown my partner some of your jokes. Keep it up, NewBee.

[@lotrgirl275]

Josh Hartnett's hair though 😁😁 at least he came horror full circle with 30 Days of Night 🥰

Omg, A favorite! Thank you! Sending love to you, your wife and your cats for making my day

[@katjosephperez8772]

I mean, if I was still emotionally exhausted and distressed (and likely sleeping late to make up for fitful sleep riddled with nightmares), I’d stop wearing eyeliner, too. It takes the longest and commonly requires the most precision. Why she was wearing that ugly outfit at the end is beyond me. (Not really; I own The Breakfast Club.) But for *this* movie, it doesn’t really make sense for her to go shopping and change her whole wardrobe with the trauma of the whole story. She’s probably stay home a lot, and wearing the same clothes is normal and doesn’t come with the sense of uncertainty while trying on light pink clothes for the first time. Considering the water factor for the aliens, I’m surprised she didn’t have the greasiest hair and stink lines coming off of her body and breath.

[@dexterx740]

The somewhat happy/nonsensical ending it's what bothers me about this one. I can even overlook the "vampire rules" thing as you said.

[@seekingfreedom9020]

This movie is amazing and has an All-Star cast, so many well-known actors

[@castletemper6121]

Great review!

Is this a re-post/re-review? Not that I mind (I’ll watch again, regardless.) but I’m having intense deja vu. Newbee can’t be beat, even on repeat.

[@acidbath3226]

HAHAHAHHA JON STEWART THEME WAS THE BEST

[@prehistorichero2755]

I actually didn't like this movie (and that doesn't mean I hate Robert Rodreguez as I regarded him as a decent director but with the exception of Spy Kids 1 & 2, I'm a big fan of his kids' movies as they're all terrible). Why? Okay, I appreciate is the horror tone, the cast of characters, the character development despite any stereotypes, and there's great acting, I can see why people liked it, but the reason is the story and writing ruins the theme of life at high school, even the ending felt cheap. Seriously, drugs can save the planet? That's just stupid! Drugs are harmful to our planet and ourselves! And, yes, humans and animals were made of 70 percent of water, but even if aliens had to do so due to their aquatic nature, there's no reason for them to attack Earth like this when Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, would serve as a paradise for them as it does have water inside and beneath the ice. Why not just have the villain being always human this entire time but with Lovecraftian powers that could dismember and regenerate her body parts to infect others and used them as drones as she curiously picked up a serum from a crashed alien probe and injected it into her veins as she was revealed to be a drug dealer, and have an ending where the space probe she found had an antidote that could destroy any alien cell in her body, killing her, but the side effect is that every high school student didn't go back to normal as they're revealed to be already dead, leaving the protagonist to leave this school and decided to get homeschooled? This would've made the movie feel what high school is really like where every staff and student have their colors, even when they can hide them, just like in my high school.

[@johnamperpesano412]

Is that Usher?

What's up the NewBee? Absolutely love your videos! Don't let that Bit*h with a capital C Susan get you down! You keep doing you.
