Body Snatchers

1993 · 1h 27m · Horror, Science Fiction

IMDb 6.0 Metacritic 65 RT 70%

Skip it—this 1993 remake of the sci-fi classic lacks the paranoid punch of the original and feels like a by-the-numbers alien invasion flick that's more tedious than tense. If you want body-snatching thrills, hunt down the superior 1978 Kaufman version instead.

Plot

When Environmental Protection Agency inspector Steve Malone travels to a remote military base in order to check for toxic materials, he brings his family along for the ride. After arriving at the base, his teenage daughter Marti befriends Jean Platt, daughter of the base's commander, General Platt. When people at the base begin acting strangely, Marti becomes convinced that they are slowly being replaced by plant-like aliens.
