Despite this warning from a seemingly insane man, the Malone family moves to take a job at a military base outside Selma, Alabama. But the Malone's soon plunge into a nightmare world where people's lives are drained, only to be replaced by soulless, emotionless aliens that emerge from cocoon-like "pods" to take possession of their human "hosts." Now, imagine--you're gone and someone else is living inside your body!

Reviews

Midwest Film Journal

Nick Rogers

Abel Ferrara's 1994 incarnation of the body snatchers story is not the most recent. But it's the most resonant in a contemporary sense — a perfectly paranoid counterpart to its 1956 and 1978 predecessors infused with deeply unsettling reminders of loss.

...a fine adaptation of an iconic novel.

Though the look is upgraded and the tone more sinister than in previous iterations, there aren't enough new twists to warrant yet another interpretation.

An entertaining and dread filled horror science fiction film...
