- Richard8 de febrero de 2026I first saw The Faculty back in the day and it instantly stood out as one of those late 90s sci‑fi horror gems that blended teen drama with alien paranoia. It had that unmistakable vibe of the era, sharp dialogue, a stylish soundtrack and a cast full of rising stars. And of course, Famke Janssen was a highlight. Seeing her in that role added a cool mix of elegance and vulnerability, especially as her character gets pulled into the chaos. The movie played with classic “body snatcher” themes but wrapped them in a high school setting that made everything feel more intense and fun. It was the kind of film that didn’t pretend to be anything other than what it was: a slick, entertaining creature feature with attitude. Watching it back then felt like discovering a cult classic in the making.
- Daniel Taylor28 de diciembre de 2025Peak late 90’s teen horror with attitude. Creepy, funny, and stacked with a great cast before they were famous. The “something is wrong at this school” vibe still works, the soundtrack slaps, and the nostalgia hits hard. Comfort horror that’s endlessly rewatchable.
- carter288216 de diciembre de 2025The Faculty is an absolute blast and an absolute horror classic!! The movie has such an intriguing premise that doesn’t fail to surprise you. The cast is great and so much fun to be around, they all have different personalities that works so well since the film is about a high school. I can admit that the CGI and visual effects aren’t all that great. But the twist at the end was actually pretty shocking and really worked!! So overall an absolute blast of a film and in my eyes a horror classic!!!
- viktorsmi28 de noviembre de 2025A spin on the Invasion of the Body Snatchers, reimagined through the 1990s counter culture lens. A time capsule of the decade it was made in, and wonderful one at that. An interesting look at early careers of many of the Gen X stars, as well as a corner stone of Rodriguez's career. Practical effects definitely allow this movie to stand out after all this time.
- Kyle Bianchi22 de octubre de 2025I don't think there's such a thing as a perfect movie, but when you think of some perfect 90s movies, especially those in the horror and thriller genres, a handful come to mind. I hope when anyone thinks of this era, The Faculty comes to mind. It's a great flick, easily one of the most memorable from the 90s.

Lo que ignoran es que están a punto de enfrentarse con algo que nunca podrían haber imaginado.
