The Faculty is a 1998 Teen Horror film directed by Robert Rodriguez, his first in which he only served as director and not a writer. The story involves a parasitic alien landing in small-town Ohio and turning the faculty of a High School into its puppets, followed by the students and the rest of the town.Six students, however, manage to find out what's going on: nerdy kid and school newspaper photographer Casey Connor (Elijah Wood), queen bitch Delilah Profitt (Jordana Brewster), Goth chick Stokely Mitchell (Clea DuVall), drug-dealing delinquent Zeke Tyler (Josh Hartnett), academically-challenged football player Stan Rosado (Shawn Hatosy), and new transfer student Marybeth Louise Hutchinson (Laura Harris). Together, they set out to put a stop to the aliens, armed only with Zeke's drugs — which are instantly fatal to the aliens — and their knowledge of Alien Invasion movies like Invasion of the Body Snatchers.Among the rare successful horror comedies (especially out of the bunch that followed in Scream's wake), both very funny and very scary. The film's writer, Kevin Williamson, also wrote the first two Scream movies, which helped it to avoid making the mistakes of many of the copycat teen horror movies of the late '90s. Expect loads of creative gore and really creative casting.

Axes at School
 The Faculty / int_10cb9a31
comment
Axes at School: Zeke pulling a gun on the principal, who he and his friends suspect to be controlled by the alien Puppeteer Parasite, in the gym and forcing her to snort his homemade drug (which dehydrates and kills the parasites) or else he'll shoot her. She refuses and threatens to have him expelled, which is not the wisest thing to say to somebody who is holding a gun to your head. That said, she was possessed, which lets her get right back up until the other protagonists dump a ton of Zeke's powdered drug all over her face, killing her for good. One of the rare instances where the kid with the gun is portrayed as the unambiguous hero.

Sucky School
 The Faculty / int_2be74be
comment
Sucky School: There is a scene early on that takes place at a faculty meeting, where they are deciding how to divide the school's budget. Much to the teachers' chagrin, money that could be used for buying new textbooks or putting on a School Play other than Our Townnote A play that is traditionally staged without a set of any kind, and as few props as possible. Theater geeks will get a chuckle from this. is instead directed towards the football team because, as Principal Drake explains, they live in a football town. She doesn't think the football team deserves all the attention and funding, but it's what the parents want. Also, take a look at the map of Europe in the history classroom. Despite the film being set in 1998, the map still shows a united Soviet Union, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, implying that it's at least ten years old — and judging by the condition it's in, probably older. Several of the door frames look like they could use, at a minimum, a new coat of paint. Most of the staff is pretty dispirited and apathetic even before the aliens show up.

Cursed with Awesome: A side effect of the alien parasites is that they can heal any injury inflicted on their host. Principal Drake gets stabbed through the hands and carved up with scissors, but is fully healed by the time she's possessed. Ms Burke gets decapitated and the aliens can reattach her head in time for her to be alive and well in the ending.

Good Thing You Can Heal: Used multiple times as the humans infected can regenerate all kinds of grusome injuries, and all return to normal by the end of the movie. However, it's subverted in the case of Professor Furlong, who after being turned back human isn't able to regenerate and is subjected to an eyepatch and four missing fingers at the movie's closing.

Beautiful All Along: Miss Burke is an evil version of this trope. All it takes to make her look sexy is fixing her hair, dropping her glasses and giving her a red tank top, and everyone treats her like a Head-Turning Beauty... but this occurs after she's been turned into an alien puppet. (Though being played by Famke Janssen certainly doesn't hurt either).

Breakfast Club: The film is basically The Breakfast Club as a sci-fi horror movie with parasitic aliens, with the protagonists' personalities and roles mapping fairly closely to their counterparts in that film. (Stan —> Andy, Delilah —> Claire, Casey —> Brian, Zeke —> Bender, and Stokely —> Allison.) The fact that Marybeth doesn't have an obvious counterpart from The Breakfast Club is, in fact, a pretty early clue that she's actually the Big Bad.

Casey: Stereotypical Nerd. However, being studious, constantly bullied, and a social outcast works in his favor. He's astute enough to be one of the first to notice the alien invasion going on, his social outcast status made it hard for him to even get infected, and years outrunning bullies makes him a natural long-distance runner which comes in handy in the climax when he needs to outrun the alien queen.

Predictably, the faculty sets things up to make Casey look like an Attention Whore and the cops don't believe anything he says. To make matters worse, the principal manages to infect one of the cops, who goes on to infect the rest of the police force by the next day.

During the drug scene, Marybeth tries to get out of taking Zeke's drugs by arguing that they would probably kill her due to her allergies. She's right — because she's an alien. Furthermore, she doesn't act high until well after she's supposedly ingested Zeke's drug, and is the only one to take it where we don't see the drug leave the pen tube. She tilts her head back and later her tube is empty.

Aliens in Cardiff: Lampshaded and justified. When one character claims that it would be absurd for aliens to secretly invade via a High School in a small town and Brainwash the population, another Genre Savvy character points out that this would attract a lot less attention than attacking a big city, which the whole world will notice.

Stan: Dumb Jock. He feels that his heavy involvement as the captain of the football team is damaging his academic performance, and that his teachers are giving him preferential treatment just because he's a star athlete. This causes him to quit the team in order to focus on schoolwork. He'd rather fail honestly than get a free ride through high school and college that'll leave him unprepared for life afterwards.

Drill Sergeant Nasty: Coach Willis is shown acting like this before he gets infected, even greeting the alien with a dismissive "Yeah? What?" as it approaches him via Murderer P.O.V.. Getting taken over by the alien parasite gives him a far more cool and composed attitude, to the point of shrugging off the star quarterback Stan's announcement that he's quitting the team.

School Play

comment
There is a scene early on that takes place at a faculty meeting, where they are deciding how to divide the school's budget. Much to the teachers' chagrin, money that could be used for buying new textbooks or putting on a School Play other than Our Townnote A play that is traditionally staged without a set of any kind, and as few props as possible. Theater geeks will get a chuckle from this. is instead directed towards the football team because, as Principal Drake explains, they live in a football town. She doesn't think the football team deserves all the attention and funding, but it's what the parents want.

Teacher/Student Romance: The infected Miss Burke hides in the back of Zeke's car, then attempts to seduce him when he's speeding away from the infected football team. Zeke then slams the car into a school bus, sending her through the windshield and decapitating her. She gets better. The final scenes imply that they Hooked Up Afterwards. (This is made less squicky than it might have been, because it's implied there's not actually much of an age difference; she's a young teacher and he's repeating his senior year).

No Ontological Inertia: Justified. After Zeke examines one of the parasites, he notices that it doesn't have all the necessary organs to sustain itself independently and concludes (correctly) that there must be an alien queen with a telepathic link to all of her "offspring." Killing her would kill all the parasites, returning everyone to their normal selves.

Lecture as Exposition: Mr. Tate starts history class by repeating the prior week's lecture from chapter 4, espousing the values of conformity among the masses for the purposes of establishing a unified state. Stan is quick to remind him that they were on chapter 5 instead, which is about individual action in society. In this case, it's the teacher himself who's the subject of the foreshadowing as much as the content of his lecture.

What Happened to the Mouse?: It's not confirmed if Principal Drake and Mr. Furlong are actually dead. Both were seemingly killed off during the attacks. But infected Miss Burke was decapitated and turns up alive at the end, and Mr. Furlong is shown during the credits, teaching with an eyepatch and bandaged hand. Principal Drake is alive and well later in the movie, specifically at the 33 minute mark, but getting dissolved into mush on the other hand....

Glamour Failure: In addition to the obvious changing attitudes of Puppeteer Parasites, people infected with the alien parasite can be discerned by their need to drink lots of water, as the things quickly dehydrate their hosts. This is also why Zeke's drugs are so effective against them (the drugs absorb water and dehydrate people). They get better at pretending to be human as the film goes on. By the time Stan is infected, the only way they know for sure it's not him is that he refuses to snort scat.

Rewatch Bonus: Several concerning who the villain is. When Marybeth first sees Zeke's drugs, she says "that will probably kill me". Zeke mentions how everyone seems off at school, and Marybeth responds "I'm from the south, y'all are off to me" - possibly trying to downplay any suspicions. Marybeth quite obviously asks Zeke about how he makes his drugs. On the second watch, she's clearly trying to work out how to stop them. You'll notice in the fight with Mr Furlong, Delilah is quite proactive in trying to help Casey. Then you see Marybeth pull her behind the desk, which is clearly when she infects her. Afterwards, Delilah becomes far more passive and starts snarking at Marybeth - when she'd been mostly civil to her before. This Marybeth preserving her cover by generating sympathy for herself. Delilah is also the one just suggesting to leave town. Principal Drake very obviously seems to know that Stan and Stokeley are looking for her at the game, and leaves to confront them on her own. Marybeth knew that's who they were looking for, and programmed Drake to come and play the Red Herring.

Foreshadowing: Lots of it, concerning the identity of the Big Bad. This wonderful line from Marybeth: During the drug scene, Marybeth tries to get out of taking Zeke's drugs by arguing that they would probably kill her due to her allergies. She's right — because she's an alien. Furthermore, she doesn't act high until well after she's supposedly ingested Zeke's drug, and is the only one to take it where we don't see the drug leave the pen tube. She tilts her head back and later her tube is empty. The other students mention a master, but the first person to refer to a "Queen" and continually refer to her as "her" is Marybeth. One that's so subtle that most people miss it the first time around: when the heroes confront Principal Drake, assuming her to be the Queen, Marybeth empties almost their entire supply of Zeke's drugs over her even after she's been stabbed with a pen full of the stuff. We're meant to assume she's panicking, but she's actually doing this so that they'll run out quicker, just as the stoners try to literally buy all of Zeke's supply after becoming infected... so that no one will realize the aliens' weakness. Mr. Furlong, after failing to hit on Nurse Harper, grumbles that he'd rather "get a pen in his eye." Later, after he's been converted, Zeke does precisely that to him. One of the others says that Casey thinks he's Sigourney Weaver. He's the Final Boy.

Taxonomic Term Confusion: The film contains this line: "We discovered a new phylum in biology class today; maybe even a new species." This makes no sense, because something in a new phylum would have to be in a new species. Probably the actor accidentally switched "species" and "phylum" around from the scripted line, and nobody caught the mistake.

Homage: The drug test scene is an homage to the blood test in The Thing (1982). The scene where Marybeth walks around the locker room naked in pursuit of Casey is one to the "locker-stalking" scene in Hello Mary-Lou: Prom Night II. When Miss Burke gets beheaded in the car crash, her head walks around on tentacles then she grabs it. This is a recurring art obsession, from Saint Denis to Victorian photographers. It is also in Re-Animator and The Serpent and the Rainbow. Also likely a reference to The Thing.

Working with the Ex: Delilah and Stan break up early in the film, but Delilah almost immediately turns to Stan for help, and they have surprisingly little drama. The only point of conflict is when Delilah gets a bit bitchy about Stokely’s interest in Stan in an effort to turn the group against each other after she is infected, but it’s mixed in with equally harsh observations about everyone else in the group.

Stokely: Psycho Loner Goth. She's intentionally abrasive to ward off Abhorrent Admirers, going so far as even faking that she's a lesbian. Also, her interests in sci-fi make her Genre Savvy enough to know they have to kill the alien queen to save everyone.

Break Them by Talking: Used multiple times by the pod people against the heroes, but the big one is delivered by the Hive Queen in her Marybeth form. When the Big Bad confronts Casey in the locker room, the Big Bad tries to convince him that, by joining the aliens, he will be happy and will no longer have to suffer through humiliation at the hands of his peers. When Casey refuses to be swayed, the Big Bad simply gives up, tells him that it's too late and that the aliens have already won, and comes after him.

comment
Jump Scare: Early on, when Casey, Delilah, Stan and Stokely are talking about aliens taking over the school in a classroom, Zeke bursts into the room with an unexpected yell making Casey jump. Later, almost near the end of the film, Zeke slams up against a locker and Casey jumps yet again with some profanity. Sure, there's other jump scares in this film, but it seems like Zeke really loves just scaring the absolute shit out of Casey for the hell of it...

Shout-Out
 The Faculty / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Principal Drake gets her name from the Drake Equation, which is used to estimate how much intelligent life there is in the universe. Several movies and books about aliens get name-dropped by the characters, including E.T., Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), The Puppet Masters and Independence Day. The drug test is similar to the blood test in The Thing (1982). One of the people taking it even gets exposed as an alien. Much like in The Breakfast Club Stan (Andy's counterpart) and Stokely (Allison's counterpart) end up as a couple at the end of the film. Subverted with Deliliah. Instead of ending up with Zeke (I.E. Claire and Bender) She ends up with Casey (Brian) Zeke actually appears to have ended up with the not quite as Shrinking Violet as before Miss Burke.

Implausible Deniability: During the climax, Marybeth has been exposed as the Hive Queen controlling the Puppeteer Parasites that have taken over the school. Zeke, who doesn't yet know this, shows up and has to play Spot the Impostor between Marybeth and Stokely, with Marybeth claiming that Stokely is not only the real Hive Queen but also a Psycho Lesbian who tried to rape her. One problem: Marybeth is completely naked, having just shapeshifted back into her human form but having left her clothes behind, and she's extremely nonchalant about it. Zeke takes one look and asks the obvious question.

Kill Him Already!: Happens twice. First when the characters discover Delilah has been infected and taken over, and Casey grabs the gun but hesitates to shoot while the others yell for him to either shoot or not shoot, and she gets away before Stokely can grab the gun and go through with it. The second time, Zeke grabs the gun and shoots the suspected alien queen before she can get free, not taking any chances.

Deconstructed Character Archetype
 The Faculty / int_ec9a5f50
comment
Deconstructed Character Archetype: Like Scream, this movie takes many of the typical characters you'd expect to see in a high school setting and either deconstructs or subverts their characters in story relevant ways. Casey: Stereotypical Nerd. However, being studious, constantly bullied, and a social outcast works in his favor. He's astute enough to be one of the first to notice the alien invasion going on, his social outcast status made it hard for him to even get infected, and years outrunning bullies makes him a natural long-distance runner which comes in handy in the climax when he needs to outrun the alien queen. Delilah: Cruel Cheerleader and Alpha Bitch. She is a cheerleader and can be mean, but her targets are those she thinks are acting stupidly and those who are jerks themselves, making her something of a Bully Hunter. At the film's end she even Gives Geeks A Chance by leaving her jock boyfriend for Casey. Stan: Dumb Jock. He feels that his heavy involvement as the captain of the football team is damaging his academic performance, and that his teachers are giving him preferential treatment just because he's a star athlete. This causes him to quit the team in order to focus on schoolwork. He'd rather fail honestly than get a free ride through high school and college that'll leave him unprepared for life afterwards. Stokely: Psycho Loner Goth. She's intentionally abrasive to ward off Abhorrent Admirers, going so far as even faking that she's a lesbian. Also, her interests in sci-fi make her Genre Savvy enough to know they have to kill the alien queen to save everyone. Zeke: Delinquent. Yeah, he sells students drugs and celebrity sex tapes, but he's also revealed to be Brilliant, but Lazy, making a homemade drug test kit that proves to be toxic to the aliens. He also is never infected, along with Casey, because his criminal background and know-how makes him well-suited for dealing with the situation at hand. Marybeth: Final Girl. The viriginal, Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold facade is a literal facade, as she is actually the Hive Queen just wearing a human disguise.

Drugs Are Good: It's very difficult to believe that the film didn't promote a message like this. There are loads of things that can be a monstrous alien's downfall from Applied Phlebotinum to Weaksauce Weakness, but what absolutely kills the vicious aliens that harbor goals of assimilation and replacement? Narcotics! Yep. Cleverly disguised as writing pens so you can use the drugs in class. What is the surefire way to tell that your friend hasn't been infected with an alien parasite in this movie? Why, see if they can use drugs without dying, of course.

Impostor-Exposing Test: After the students learn that Zeke's homemade drugs are fatal to the aliens, they force everyone in the group to take the drugs to make sure that none of them are spies. Delilah is exposed as being under the aliens' control by the test, and trashes Zeke's drug lab and runs off. Marybeth is also an alien (the Hive Queen, in fact), but manages to beat the test by sealing her nostrils. Everyone else gets really high and starts laughing hysterically. They later try to force the principal (who is infected) to do the same, but she refuses, causing them to shoot her dead and dump the drugs on her body to keep her down.
