I really wanted to like They Live especially after having watched The Pervert's Guide to Cinema. Similar with The Thing which is also directed by John Carpenter. Both movies start really strong and then just descend into pointless violence. Anyway, I digress ...
You might enjoy The Pervert's Guide to Cinema.
Slavoj Zizek - The Pervert's Guide to Cinema / The Pervert's Guide to Ideology
My own picks would be HyperNormalisation, The Pervert's Guide to Cinema, and Koyaanisqatsi
He has a talent for getting attention and seems to enjoy it. But to call him a troll would be a great disservice to his work. His ideas are very "flammable" though, so I can understand you seeing him as troll.
Perhaps best approach to Žižek is through his film commentaries. Watch The Pervert's Guide To Cinema.
