WATCH OUT! THEY GET YOU WHlLE YOU RE SLEEPlNG!
When heaIth official EIizabeth DriscoII (Brooke Adams) notices that her lover has become strangeIy distant, this sets in train a series of shocking discoveries that sees both her and coIIeague Matthew BennelI (Donald SutherIand) fIeeing for their lives to the sound of ear-piercing aIien screams.
Remakes of great films are usualIy on a hiding to nothing, but Philip Kaufman s brilliant update of the 1956 cIassic is a rare and memorable exception. Transposing the action to the heart of San Francisco aIlows Kaufman to retain aII the suspense of Jack Finney s originaI story while adding caustic social commentary about the selfishness of the 1970s me generation that remains all too relevant today.
But it s a paranoid thriIler first and foremost, based on one of the most psychologicalIy terrifying of all premises what happens when you can no longer trust not just the authorities but even your nearest and dearest?
