body snatchers (1993)


"If we'd known what was waiting for us we would have run."
A teenage girl (Meg Tilly) and her family move onto a miltary base for the summer, due to her father's work. Displaced and a typical teen. she's not happy to be there. Then things start to become weird, with odd occurances leading to her discovery that aliens are cloning army and replacing personnel.
Featuring a screenplay co-written by Stuart Gordon, this is an interesting adaption of the classic 50's Macarthy paranoia sci-fi, and whilst it will never surpass the original, this is a solid and entertaining horror.
