Invasion of the Body Snatchers

Studio: MGM (Video & DVD)
Product Type: DVD

Amazon.com

Something's wrong in the town of Santa Mira, California. At first, Dr. Miles Bennell (Kevin McCarthy) is unconcerned when the townsfolk accuse their loved ones of acting like emotionless imposters. But soon the evidence is overwhelming--Santa Mira has been invaded by alien "pods" that are capable of replicating humans and taking possession of their identities. It's up to McCarthy to spread the word of warning, battling the alien invasion at the risk of his own life. Considered one of the best science fiction films of the 1950s and '60s, this classic paranoid thriller was widely interpreted as a criticism of the McCarthy era (that's Senator Joseph, not actor Kevin), which was characterized by anticommunist witch-hunts and fear of the dreaded blacklist. Some hailed it as an attack on the oppressive power of government as Big Brother. However viewers interpret it, this original 1956 version of Invaders of the Body Snatchers (based on Jack Finney's serialized novel The Body Snatchers) remains a milestone movie in its genre, directed by Don Siegel with an inventive intensity that continues to pack an entertaining wallop. Look closely and you'll find future director Sam Peckinpah (an uncredited cowriter of this film) making a cameo appearance as a meter reader! The DVD release includes an interview with Kevin McCarthy, and for the first time on home video the film is presented in its original 2.35:1 widescreen aspect ratio. --Jeff Shannon

A Story About One Man`s Resistance To Collectivism.......2007-06-16

The original version of The Invasion Of The Body Snatchers is an absolutely wonderful tale of how one man first tries to save his community from falling into a collectivist society. When this fails he tries save the individual identity of himself and the woman that he loves. Then when she joins the collectivist community he is left with no other alternative but to escape from this community and try to warn those living in other communities.

This is a terrific story that very much captures the political and social environment of the time that this movie was made. I highly recommend The Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. Also if you enjoy this movie you might want to considering reading 1984 by George Orwell.

A great Cold War classic.......2007-05-16

I bought this DVD intending to teach it in a community college film class, but they didn't have the funds so the class didn't get approved. However, I'm pleased as punch at the chance to own this gem of 50's SF film. To watch this film is to fully understand Cold War paranoia, and the mood of the US during that time. Also, it's one of the few 50's SF films that don't descend into VERY silly "special" effects. Worth watching repeatedly.

Plants are not so "harmless" after all..........2007-04-24

This film horrified audiences in 1956. It still does. The idea of some plant, some pod-based life form assuming the identity of your mother, father, sister or brother, somehow transferring the consciousness of those so transformed into an emotionless shadow of their former selves is a disconcerting notion. This, the original version of the story, is especially creepy. Shot in black and white, the special effects are clumsy by today's standards but they still work. There's just something about fine tendrils reaching out for you while you sleep that gets under your skin (no pun intended). The term "pod people" has become a fixture in the vernacular of the free-spirited and is used to describe those brainwashed, robotic individuals who, promising bliss, blindly follow some bleak, emotionless, sheep-like dogma shared by all the rest of them; relinquishing individual freedoms for the sake of the greater good. These beings want you to conform, they want to absorb you; to make you one of them, to assimilate you for your own sake. Is there anything scarier than being absorbed by the group at the risk of our individualism? This film is as much a satire of social conformity as it is SF horror. It strums those sensitive chords of nonconformity in all of us with a sharp and nasty fingernail. Most of us rail against the absorbers; they scare us to death. In 1956, perhaps the safest way to express the sentiment was to do so metaphorically, with pods and soul-sucking tendrils: "They're after you, you're next!", Kevin McCarthy screams in panic at the close of the film. Just a few years later, though, and thanks to the 60's and all that free thinking, hippy-esque social change that accompanied those years, we could put up a cooler, more direct objection to the absorption, and today's highly tuned refrain is: "Not me, you pod-headed bastard, you." Pod people. Thank Jack Finney and his Collier's serial for the concept and Daniel Mainwaring for the screenplay -- a mere decade after WW II.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers.......2007-04-04

This is the all time, great, original classic. The remake is .......ok
at best. Add this to your classic movie collection.
Highly recommended.

The First Is Still The Best.......2007-03-29

This is the original, black-and-white version of the movie. Unlike later movies that focus on gore, this one focusses on actual horror--the fear that one day you will wake up and the people you know will not be who they were, and you may not even know they are changed. Based on the book The Body Snatchers, it focusses on a small town doctor who begins hearing people say that their loved ones are not really their loved ones. From there he is introduced to a dead body that is slowly coming alive before his eyes, and a town...well, you should see it for yourself. This is first-rate speculative fiction, and a must-have classic for your film library.

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

POD clone can't match the original for sheer, icy terror........2007-06-18

Irony in this first sequel to the greatest NIGHTMARE movie ever made is ...like self-consciously hip San Francisco it's filmed-in...the project is RETURN to POD CITY USA~more like a POD itself than the reel deal.IV/BS-2 is triumph-manque of style over substance.There is battle-array of classy (show-off)camera angles and smoke-and-mirrors lighting effects.Ensemble acting is okay to good with admirable,non-ironic POD:purity of d'part.But even quirky...PET/POD SOUNDS effects-laden...music is only a clone of the BxW original's id-chord spine chilling Snatcherscore.Veronica Cartwright's character is shrilling reprise of her ALIEN lost-soul crewman shtick;not a viewer whose seen SPOCK Trek or original BODY SNATCHERS even winces in surprise that Leonard Nimoy is The Snatch Master.

Maron County--Invasion's HQ,second or third Yuppiest in USA,whose capital is SF--forte is PSYCHIATRY/PSYCHOLOGY[one out of 2&1/2 residents is a shrink]is Pod land uber alles.The City itself is King-of-Queens satrapy of male homosexuality in the US~ergo:the Podsters had a huge jump-start in their Space-AIDS attack.The remake of INVASION of the BODY SNATCHERS is not bad;it's simply not scary.(Even typical"surprise ending"is POD bogus). See the original...before Daniel Craig bring his 007 version to IV-BS 4. This 1978 clone can't match the original for icy terror.I'm betting "Pod, James Pod," can't either.(3 & 1/2 pods)

No frills release of a Philip Kaufman classic.......2007-06-01

Director Philip Kaufman cooked up this thoughtful (and thought-provoking) rendition of the original shocker from Jack Finney. Adding post-modern existentialist tones, utilizing the trippy, post-hippy psycho-babble that was rampant in San Francisco after the Summer of Love, the idea of people 'changing' suddenly takes on new resonance. The sound design, and music by avant-garde jazzist Denny Zeitlin, is superb. Note that you hear sirens and hear screams from the get-go, adding to the paranoia. Donald Sutherland gave a perfect pitch performance as the ambivalent, emotionally strapped Matthew Binnell, Brooke Adams as his unavailable love.

I took a star off of this beloved film, as the print isn't anamorphic, and the sound is only Dolby Surround 2.0. The reverb bass that I enjoyed so much in the theater (during the discovery of the body in the bath house, and the "Amazing Grace" scene) really deserves a DD 5.1 mastering. -

Good Effort.......2007-03-30

Though I will always be a huge fan of the original, I did like this remake(the first of 2 with a 3rd coming up). Though it does touch upon some of the same plot points as the original, it does change things up enough to keep it interesting. With Sutherland, Nimoy, Goldblum you certainly have a lot of interesting actors. The new ending is terrific. I found the picture transfer a little dark at times, but overall it seems to be a good print. The film and the scares hold up well after nearly 30 years. A good one to add to your science fiction collection.

The Seed is Planted... Terror Grows........2007-03-04

Every so often a movie comes along where I think, "How the heck have I not seen this before?" Invasion of the Body Snatchers falls into that category. It is, of course, not to be confused with the original 1956 film of the same name.

This version stars Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Jeff Goldblum, and Leonard "Spock" Nimoy. I originally saw it when I was flipping around the channels on a Sunday afternoon, and ran across the very beginning of the movie on Showtime. I missed the first 15 minutes, but it was pretty easy to pick up what was going on. Normally, I would have kept changing the channels, but the sight of Sutherland and Nimoy talking to each other caused me to halt temporarily. Or so I thought. Instead, I ended up watching the entire movie (and have rewatched it several times since then).

Before I get into how interesting the characters were, the acting quality, how they modified the story, or how it compares to the original movie, I have to stress one major thing: The camera and environmental work in this movie is phenomenal. People don't make movies like this anymore. This was 1978, so there was no CGI. Instead, unique camera angles were used and the visuals just oozed paranoia and bleakness. Shadows, repeated themes, hand-held camera shots, and unsaturated colors set the tone throughout the film.

Allow me to elaborate, without spoiling the movie plot: There's one scene near the end when Donald Sutherland is walking down a long sidewalk. The camera is set low, so you only see him from the waist up. A huge gray edifice is set before him, the sky is gray, a few birds are flying overhead, he's wearing a rumpled trench coat, and as he walks, he is passing by an endless row of barren trees. This shot was composed completely of naturally-occurring elements and without the aid of modern computers. And you know what? It works. The feeling you get while watching it is much more powerful than anything that could be computer generated these days.

Of course, this scene wouldn't seem genuine with anyone other than Donald Sutherland. He is a very versatile actor and I get the feeling that his character was custom-tailored for him. He speaks naturally, his mannerisms are perfect, and there are a couple of times where he really nails the emotion of a shot. Whether it's a look of fear, suspicion, or anger, he's 100% there. The other major actors in the film, Nimoy and Goldblum, are equally as good. Leonard Nimoy plays a glove-wearing psychologist (I keep expecting him to say something like, "My calculations show that there cannot possibly be life on Ceti Alpha Six."), while Jeff Goldblum is his usual wacky self. As expected, he fits quite nicely in paranoid Sci-Fi movies. The leading lady, Brooke Adams, was excellent as well. She provided a nice counter-balance to Sutherland's character, while she added her own brand of terrified confusion to the mix.

In my opinion, the 70s version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers is far better than the original 50s version. While I've always been a fan of the mood-setting that black & white films can provide, I think the color 70's version has it beat, which is extremely rare for me. I almost always prefer B&W over color when it comes to moody stuff like this. Plus, the acting is on a whole other level than the original. After all, the 70s version contains multiple powerhouse actors/actresses during the prime of their careers. How can it possibly go wrong?

Finally, I should note that this version of the movie is not so much of a remake, but a reimagining. Very few aspects of the original are reused here, other than the pod people, and the tone is much more intense. While the original film is often viewed as a commentary on the dangers of communism, this one is more geared more as a warning of rampant consumerism. I think this works better today because of this difference.

If you get a chance to see this movie on TV, or rent it, you should seize the opportunity. Especially if you're a thriller or horror genre fan. You will not be disappointed.

Chilling And Moody Remake Of The 1950's Sci Fi Classic.......2007-02-02

It's not often that I find myself the champion of any of Hollywood's largely misguided attempts in recent decades to remake classic Sci Fi films from its heyday. Often you hear modern filmmakers passing off these remakes as a "tribute", to the original version (why is that needed?), the end product generally only reveals how far many of them nowadays have lost the point as to why these early films built on mood and characterisation where so unforgettable. However one exception in this trend is I believe the 1978 remake of the classic story "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". Built on mood and a very distinct eerie build up to its exciting climax this updated version while lacking some of the edge that made the 1956 film of the same title such a stunning thriller, is still a most worthy successor. It benefits I believe from having been made in the late 1970's long before CGI special effects took over as the main ingredient in science fiction movie making at the expense of proper story telling and character development. What we have in this 1978 film is a tightly structured story with great atmosphere and with an overwhelming feeling of fear hovering over the preceedings at every turn. Combined with its great cast headed by Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams and Leonard Nimoy, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", really packs a punch and succeeded in keeping this viewer on the edge of his seat for the film's entire running time.

A Masterpiece.......2007-07-04

Jack Finney is one of the greatest Sci-Fi writers of all time. This film based on his novel by the same name is a very well done modern telling of it. The San Francisco setting is made very haunting by the masterful camerawork, and great soundtrack. The cast is superb and Donald Sutherland, and leonard Nemoy are absolute masters. This film is in my opinion one of the greatest horror Sci-Fi films ever made.

It is now fasionable to re-make everything the moment someone's haircut looks outdated or an actor is no longer recognizable or if the female lead does not have a skinny body with tight jeans on only 1/2 an inch above her promised land. To this I say fine, cool, so be it, go for it. Just for crying out loud please come equal to or top the last film with the same name and source material.

I am excited for this new version of the film. I love Nicole Kidman and am sure she will do a great job. The trailer looks decent enough and the idea of using the shuttle disaster as a spring board to add realism is very cool. Just for gods sake watch this older version and pay attention. It's a great film and will still be great no matter how much time passes. I will be there to see the new film The Invasion but even if they mess it up I know I can always keep watching this gem.

Now i know how Bush was elected twice......Is it worth the upgrade?.......2007-06-19

This is the second remake of the 1956 classic of the same name. It was also done in 1993 with Body snatchers and will be once again with the Invasion starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel craig this August 17 2007.
Philip Kaufman (the right stuff, the unbearable lightness of being) directs this intense thriller.
I think a movie like this is scarier today think about it, we go to war and cause thousands of deaths for no reason, kids shoot up schools, people walk and drive aimlessly on cell phones oblivious and uncarring of their surroundings, you can't get a thank you or a your welcome at most places, why would this be i asked some.....(donald sutherland face) SCREAM!

Get Yer Tendrils Outta My Nose!..........2007-06-24

I loved both the '56 and '78 versions of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS. The paranoia factor is high in both movies, adding to the ultimate dread of such an alien invasion. In BODY SNATCHERS, the alien conspiracy takes place on an army base, where it can barely be noticed. After all, lack of emotion, group-think, and "following the leader" are pretty much standard military protocol. Marti (Gabrielle Anwar) is a typical bored teenager, brought along by her EPA scientist dad to investigate toxic waste at the base. As things grow increasingly bizarre around her, Marti must fight to keep her sanity, her identity, and her life. Meg Tilly (Psycho 2) is at first goofy, then blankly evil as Carol, Marti's replicated stepmum. Forest Whitaker (Species) is overrought in his role as the army captain who tries to stay awake long enough to defeat the invaders. R. Lee Ermey (The Frighteners) is General Pratt, the head of more than just an army installation! BODY SNATCHERS is fittingly eerie, with that atmosphere of certain doom that I like so much! This should send folks hurrying to check under their beds for those pesky pods...

The Body Snatchers.......2007-05-06

Well done scary movie which was a modern remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Great re-make.......2007-03-23

Though the older version 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' will always have a special place in my movie going memory, this re-make was awesome! Hollywood has come a long way with special effects, so the new horror film has an added realism that's delightful (and a great diet aide). They went a lot further this time in raising my blood pressure and increasing heart palpatations. I must also say that Meg Tilly played her part to the hilt! If they give some sort of Oscar for horror flicks, she has my vote. Just excellent! For younger horror buffs who don't know what 'Pod People' are, this is a must see (or they can visit my town, we have a few). For the older folks who dearly loved the original, don't despair. This is a wonderful new version that can stand on its own and doesn't sully the spark of the former 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' we dearly loved.

3rd.......2007-03-19

The second remake of the original black and white classic is a miss for me. It is well made, but it doesn't really do anything new with the idea. I enjoyed the original movie and the update in the 70's. This one was less about the paranoid aspect and more about horror. I have heard that another remake is on the horizon, so maybe that one will bring something a little more unique to the table. This movie is okay, it pales though when compared to the first two movies. If you want a decent alien takeover movie from around the same time period, I would grab "The Pupper Masters" with Donald Sutherland.

POD PEOPLE RETURN.......2006-11-05

Did we need a third version of Jack Finney's classic novel about an alien takeover via creepy pods? Probably not, but Abel Ferrara's treatment on the familiar theme has some faithful relics from the first two (the sleep influence, the horrifying screams to identify non-conversions), and stands on its own as a creepy little thriller.
This time the movie is set on an Army base where the pods are being managed by the soldiers and staff. An EPA Chemical investigator arrives with his family (a daughter, son and new wife) and soon they all become involved.
Meg Tilly has a smallish role but is frighteningly chilling as the mother who has plans for hubby and kin. Gabrielle Anwar has one of her first roles as teenage daughter Marty who finds herself falling for hunky chopper pilot Billy Wirth. Dad Terry Kinney tries to save his family; R. Lee Ermey is the camp general; Christine Elise his wild daughter and Forest Whitaker is the camp medic who takes drastic measures to prevent his takeover.
All in all, a respectable interpretation of a classic scifi story.
