Review

 

When filmy spores fall from space and take root in San Francisco, the city is beautifully transformed by spectacular and exotic flowers. But these lovely extraterrestrial blossoms have gruesome plans for their earthly admirers: to slowly clone their bodies, and then dispose of the originals!

A first-rate suspense thriller, this sci-fi adventure is a chilling, dazzling and stunning thrill ride that will send your pulse rate soaring! From a brilliant screenplay by W.D. Richer, filmmaker Philip Kaufman directs an all-star cast that includes Donald Sutherland, Jeff Goldblum, Brooke Adams and Leonard Nimoy. With its mesmerizing style and awe-inspiring special effects, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a classic of the genre - a terrifying tale that literally chills the blood!

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars A PARANOID AND CLASSY REMAKE!

This 1970's remake to the 1950's paranoid sci-fi is as every bit as good. Although an update it may look just as dated as the original with all the crappy 70's dress senses and hair cuts. But the film really does chill to the bone. Southerland excells in the lead role, and the ending out spooks the original. This is a very underrated 70's classic, and if you like the origianl you are sure to be pleased with this. It's a great shame that there is a seriouse lack of extra features that this film truly deserves.
Brilliant paranoid nightmarish stuff!

If only all remakes were as good as this one. Creepy and with a great script. All the Body Snatcher films are worth a watch, but I still rate this one as the best.

There's been a few remakes since the original but this version is still the best out of the lot even though the first one is a classic. Its very creepy and dark and there's great performances from all actors especially Donald Sutherland. I think this was a clever film the way they put it all together and a great update on the original. I really enjoyed this film and if your a horror fan this is a must see.
