About this episode
Prepare to shriek because we're talking about Philip Kaufman's remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) for week 3 of 'Doppelgänger and Deception' month. There's a lot to unpack in this technical masterpiece, including the vital early character work, the amazing practical effects, and that fatalistic ending. Plus: directing bukkake, debating Leonard Nimoy's Kibner, the "Me Decade" of the 70s, one of cinema's most devastating deaths, and comparison to the other Body Snatcher remakes.
