The Faculty may only look like some teenage crappy movie, but it is not. On this example you can see where these types of movies went after the year 2000 and this whole Harry Potter, and even worse Percy dumbass. We basicly have the same plot of group of young people fighting something supernatural but in a more realistic and not lame approach. After the discovery of the new species on the school grounds a group (very diverse group) will notice that the species is infecting the faculty of the school. It is up to them to save their lives, lives of the faculty, town and eventually the Earth. Connections with Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and The Thing are subtle and well explained. This is a movie that does not take itself seriously, leaving room for jokes and funny one-liners but still remains pretty intense. The special effects are really good, and they look awesome even today. Enjoy.
