I still have to get around to seeing that film, but its very existence bothers me. The original Invasion of the Body Snatchers was excellent, the 1970s remake with Donald Sutherland was even better. Of course, the 1990s remake, just called Body Snatchers was terrible, but I bet it was better than this.
And this one? Oh God, why even remake Invasion of the Body Snatchers if the alien menace is no longer emotionless copies of people that hatch out of giant seed pods? It's now a virus? Are you kidding me?
