Really undervalued. It's easy to stop at the obvious military/conformity analog, but that's foolishly ignoring Ferrara's deep mistrust of the family unit here. Indoctrination is indoctrination. Control is control. It's all the more terrifying for the way he eroticizes the…

honestly closer to an existentially serious version of chuck russell's The Blob than either previous Body Snatchers adaptations. the material itself (with screenplay drafts from scifi/horror exploitation kings stuart gordon and larry cohen) has obvious satirical prospects…

The end of the second act is one of the great horror movie sequences of the ‘90s. Pure doom. Meg Tilly is the doomstress.

Ferrara's grand vision of apocalypse - everything is set in a suburbia itself set inside of a military base, while the aliens take on human forms and are unidentifiable in any way except that they are incapable of expressing emotion. In short, Ferrara's vision of the…

doesn't have to be the whole world anymore. the apocalypse is going down right on your small little (supposed to be safe) island. the military apparatus goes blindly into his destruction. more paranoia of de-individualization, cooptation, racial fanaticism. here you even…

watched as research for a thing i’m writing and it’s so good. the ending kinda fizzles out for me, but really gross and unnerving and disgustingly sexy too. Abel Ferrara slaps

Not gonna lie, the first act of this movie was so slow and pretty much uneventful that I was feeling bored; but when we get our first corpse and s**t hits the fan and we get the greatest callback of the 70s version, I literally pump my fist into the air and got overly…
