1978, Philip Kaufman, USA, 115 min

There's a little something extra in virtually every frame of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Philip Kaufman's dazzling remake of one of the cleverest of horror classics (and has there ever been a better title for a movie of this sort?). In a shot of someone's office, the camera catches all of one window but just a tiny, ominous corner of another. Two characters go for a friendly drive in a car with a broken windshield. There are too many reflections, outstanding odd details, rays of curiously colored light. The leaves are covered with gelatinous ooze. Whatever the trouble is, it's everywhere. - Janet Maslin, The New York Times

With Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Jeff Goldblum, Leonard Nimoy
