Product Description:
Movie DVD

Amazon.com:
Jack Finney's classic science fiction novel has been the basis of three big-screen adaptations, beginning with the 1956 chiller Invasion of the Body Snatchers and most recently as 1994's underrated Body Snatchers. This acclaimed 1978 version from director Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff) is every bit as creepy as the '56 original, and it fits perfectly into the cycle of paranoid thrillers that thrived in American movies of the 1970s. Kaufman stylishly directs from an intelligent screenplay by W.D. Richter, while Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adams lead a distinguished cast (including Jeff Goldblum, Leonard Nimoy, and Veronica Cartwright) and must fight for survival as the population of San Francisco is systematically cloned by alien "pods" from a distant, dying planet. The atmosphere of dread and paranoia grows increasingly intense as the complexity of the alien invasion is gradually revealed, until nobody can be trusted to be who they appear. Finely tuned performances enhance the film's eerie atmosphere, highlighted by moments that will lurk in your memory long after the movie's over. MGM's DVD release includes a full-length audio commentary by Kaufman, a "pod culture" retrospective, Body Snatchers trivia, production notes, and the original theatrical trailer. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Invasion Of the Body Snatchers-1978
Growing up, Seeing this Film,which was/is Creepy as Hell, and Gross. Although I don't think I have seen the Original, This movie is good,long but good, I hate the Ending, I could care less for the Republican putdown. The movie is eerie considering there are many obamabots who are mindlessly in love with a empty suit, So while I am not a Huge Sci Fi Fan per se,more horror really.The movie is similar to what is going on today and the sick cult like worship of celebs.the acting is good.Funny it happen ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An awesome Sci-fi horror remake with a great DVD!


In the city of San Francisco, people seem to be acting a bit strange as even Health Inspector Matthew (Donald Sutherland) begin noticing including a married woman named Elizabeth (Brooke Adamns) who's husband Geoffrey (Art Hindle) isn't acting like himself. Elizabeth and Matthew join with a married couple (Jeff Goldblum and Veronica Cartwright) with a doctor (Leonard Nimoy) as they believe that there's a conspiracy going on, alien pods from space have arrived on Earth to replicate humans ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not so great
The plot was weak, the acting was so so even with Leonard Nimoy. Not a real good remake.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better Than The 1956 Original
There are few times,I have actually liked A remake better than the original;this is absolutely one of those times.As much as I loved the original,4 star film,I think this,5 star, film is better.Better in the sense,it is more terrifying,there is more suspense,and At times this film seems like A non-stop thrill ride.Plus,unlike the original,the entire cast,not just the lead star,is superb.Donald Sutherland is great as The curious Health inspector,and Brooke Adams is equally wonderful as Sutherland's assistant,and ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "This would have been so much easier if we had just gone to sleep"
An alien race migrates to earth in the form of tiny plant spores that deceivingly take on the form of beautiful flowers. It's not long before a group of four people begin to take note of the sudden and numerous behavioral changes of those around them, and soon uncover the truth: Humans are being replicated by the aliens through a pod-like process that replaces the person in question with an alien clone. In mere days, the four find themselves among the few humans remaining as paranoia grows exponentially and trust ... Read More
