I am 99.99% sure this is about The Faculty, but it's been a while, so if I'm recognizing the screencap wrong, ignore this. If it is about The Faculty, though, I would point out that it actually became a bit of a cult hit. Of course, it wasn't a deep cinematic masterpiece, but it had a lot of really great substance as an homage to the genre and campy sci-fi. It's easy to write it off as a terrible movie just because it seems like a campy 90s movie on the surface, bu it has lots of cinematic and genre merits, despite itself (and I would argue, because it knows exactly what it is and didn't take itself too seriously).

Also, don't feel like a dick! It's great that you found some common ground with your sister, no matter what it was. Siblings (especially with an age difference) often have trouble connecting, so whatever common ground you found is great (even if you do still think the movie is terrible :P).

It is The Faculty! :) You're right about the homage aspect, which I'd forgotten about (it's been a while), which makes me think maybe it's better than I remember.

And thanks. I felt guilty as a very young adult for not connecting to my sister when I'd managed to connect really well with my brother; oddly, years and years later, it's my sister with whom I have a good relationship. But it started with this movie, and I always thought that was kind of weird.
