Invasion of The Body Snatchers 1976 is the bomb!! This 1993 version should have been more visceral, faster-paced and scary as hell...but it drags painfully in places, and the whole military setting gets tired. The original is probably the best, but the 1976 version had a perfect blend of comedy and true horror - and the effects were superior!!! When Donald Sutherland sheds his "other" self...that's just pitch-perfect. Don't know why they remade it again to tell you the truth.
In 1993 Abel Ferrara made 2 great but very underrated films - this one and Dangerous Game. Body Snatchers was interesting but very short remake. It looked like some scenes were suddenly abrupt. Anyway they put some really memorable things. Gabrielle Anwar showed brilliant acting. I love films about body snatchers - these films, The Thing (1982), The Hidden (1987), The Arrival (1996), Them (1996), Mimic (1997), The Lake (1998), The Faculty (1998), Terminal Invasion (2002), Slither (2006) etc
