"A first-rate suspense thriller" (Newsday), this sci-fi adventure is a "chilling" (Leonard Maltin), "dazzling" (The New York Times) and "stunning" (Cosmopolitan) thrill ride that will send your pulse rate soaring!
Under cover of darkness, while an unsuspecting city sleeps, an alien life form begins to sow the seeds of unspeakable terror. 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! One by one the residents of San Francisco are becoming drone-like shadows of their former selves.
As the phenomenon spreads, two Department of Health workers, Matthew (Donald Sutherland) and Elizabeth (Brooke Adams), uncover the horrifying truth. As the unworldly invasion grows stronger with each passing minute, Matthew and Elizabeth are hurled into a desperate race to save not only their own lives, but the future of the entire human race!
From a brilliant screenplay by Academy AwardŽ nominee W.D. Richter, filmmaker Philip Kaufman directs an all-star cast, co-starring Jeff Goldblum, Veronica Cartwright and Leonard Nimoy. With its mesmerizing style and awe-inspiring special effects, INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS is "a classic of the genre" (New York Post) a terrifying tale that "literally chills the blood" (The Hollywood Reporter).
