  • This is just cheap and tawdry Yankee propaganda directed against Soviet communism.

  • Jesus Christ...

  • 4 people were the next

  • Excellent film.

  • I think the scariest idea in the film is the fact that its not safe for any body to go to sleep. The first I knew of that theme was Nightmare on Elm Street, but Body Snatchers beat them to it decades before. Fantastic film.

  • Dana Wynter was the last surviving adult member.

    note: most sources have her 79 at death, but all early books confirm she was 83.

  • I watched some of this the other day and thought hold up the Queen and most politicians have no emotions. The pods remind me of the cocoons in the cocoon film.

  • this is what stereotypes are mae of1

  • @1:21 is that headboard from the Klingon empire?

  • ahhhh!

  • This is precisely how I feel about the My Little Pony fad...

  • i think that this is the best version

    the 1978 version was way too long and boring the ending didnt work on me but this ending did

    the 1993 version was actually pretty good but not THAT good

    and i havent seen the 2007 version

  • @kallemick I haven't seen the 2007 version either, though from what I hear if you don't see it, that's to be taken as a good thing. I don't know, they twisted it up that time around that Nicole Kidman's husband started the invasion, and her son was born immune to it so therein lies her hope of stopping it. I prefer these older horror movies when things made more sense and were not so complicated, or stupid, you know? Seems they just can't make anything good anymore.

  • I watched these as a young tad...oh for the day when nightmares were just in movies...

    1:48 or thereabouts: "...you have no choice..."

  • The specter of communism/socialism is upon us!

  • I saw the Looney Tunes version and had to look this up.

  • HOLY SHIT!! ATTACK OF THE KILLER SOAP SUDS THAT SHAPSHIFT INTO PEOPLE!!!

  • 0:24 The nightmare that threatens the world! They are... THE COMMUNISTS!!!

  • boooooooooooooooooooooooooorin­g

  • I have to watch this. I've only read a parody of this in Simpsons Comics... Thanks for the video.

  • Oh she better now. Much better now......

  • Rip Dana winter I just saw on the new that she had died.

  • 3 people are pod people.

  • Heh, just watched this for the first time. Was going to put a DVD on but the first 5 minutes hooked me in so I watched it all, for an old film I was really impressed, thoroughly enjoyed it.

  • Filthy Commies! :D

  • @WiseMonkey888 Outdated?Hmmm...How much say do you think you have in the government today?With the middle class all but wiped-out and local state heads making unions a thing of the past we'll all be working for peanuts so the central power can live the life we won't even be able to dream about anymore.Mindless robots making the government richer and richer...

  • The world provided by the Snatchers is a Utopia and a Utopia can only be achieved when independent thought is destroyed. You would fear nothing, and feel nothing.

  • See horror book video trailer

  • I love old end of the world movies! We watched a bit of this in our history class and we were just like, "Hehe fail..."

  • I saw this, great acting and overall a great film.

  • Phineas and Ferb copied Invasion of the body snatchers and did it Invasion of the Ferb snatchers

  • This is the first film I can remember watching as a 3 year old child.

  • Kevin McCarthy - Now one of the best Congressmen in the House!!

  • Wow! I had no idea Glenn Beck was alive and making documentaries in the 1950's ... imagine that.

  • man i remember this movie scaring the absolute shit out of me the first time i saw it when i was 7 or 8 years old (i'm 23 now). i need to get a copy of this, i am sure i would still consider it a great movie, even though i'm very cynical on movies.

  • A movie about communism or terrorism or globalism. TSA T&A? We looked in the mirror and we saw the enemy. It was us. Our minds are being invaded by foreign forces and we have no choice but to fight for liberty or surrender as slaves.

  • Actually, it's the democrats, not the "tea baggers" (thanks for the pejorative term), that are the "collectivists". The original Invasion of the Body Snatchers was widely interpreted as a warning against communism and other types of collectivism. The Tea Party generally stands for individualism.

  • This is how anti smokers & bans started. All of them are infected like pod people & changed freedom as we know it?

  • @Godzie1 Smoking is good when this sh!t happens, then we now who is who?

  • Great film but I still prefer its remake made in 1978. The 70's were the Best in Horror and SCI-FI genres

  • why they dont make a movie like this anymore :(

  • Invasion of the Tea Baggerz!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Get out and Vote to stem the tide!

  • you dont see trailers like this these days

  • excelent movie

    is a piece of masterpiece

    great clasic

  • they are here, they're called bureacrats and politicains

  • Comment removed

  • One of my favorite sci-fi movies. RIP Kevin McCarthy.

  • the same incredible menacing terror will strike you!

  • One of the scariest movies EVER! A must for your dvd collection - I first saw this as a kid and it still scares me to this day. If Kevin's offspring read this please know he was a hell of an actor - RIP Mr. McCarthy.

  • RIP Kevin McCarthy: You made this movie great.....

  • Comment removed

  • RIP Mr. McCarthy. This film and your performance therein will always be imitated but never repeated. My favorite film of all time.

  • RIP Kevin McCarthy

  • RIP Kevin McCarthy...thank you for a classic performance.

  • The late Mr. McCarthy did a marvelous job in this superb classic -He will be missed

  • I hate the REDS!

  • Photography as great as Citizen Kane's.

    Psychological and sublimely menacing.

    Ellsworth Fredericks, the cinematographer, deserves high praise for his iconic work,

    .

  • bahahahaha!!! 0:29 Carolyn Jones!!!

  • i dunno why,but this movie reminds me of another movie i saw when i was a little kid,it was on sci-fi,and i dont remember mcuh,all i remember was one scene taht haunted me till this day,there where these 2 people hiking a nighti n the desert,and they found the woman,with an upside down head,with a body of an animal,and i had a long ass tongue,taht made me shit my pants,if anyone knows this movie's name,please tell me,i want to relive this nightmare

  • I tell you they are here NOW. They want to collectivize health care, educations, they even want to take over the banks and other industries. They are called "democrats".

  • @jscottupton *Facepalm*

  • I worked in a adult store in small town canada, for almost 9 years. THIS MOVIE IS REAL!!!

  • @Ivorkornuta What do you mean "It's Real?"

  • what a classic

  • you know when this movie was made it was during the Red scare/ McCarthy era and the "body snatchers" where ment to symbolise the communists :D

    thats my history revision done for today

  • Is it new ?

  • The man freaking out at the beginning of the film. (The main character, I think his name was Steve.) Anyway that actor ended up playing the role of the evil network tycoon in Weird Al's UHF. Which is just about the greatest film of all time, second only to The Diabolical Dr.Cyclops.

    *Gets pulled away by men in white jackets*

    This is over! You haven't seen the last of me!

  • ....Sleep....how I'll miss you so...

  • classic

  • I am making a remake of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". No, it's not going to be like the latest remake that came out in 2007. In fact, it's going to have a lot of the things from the original and the 1978 versions. But I need to know one thing: Would you guys prefer the Body Snatchers to:

    A- Be emotionless (just like in all of the others)

    B- Have all of there emotions (Act Normal)

    C- Both

    Please Reply right here!!!

  • emotionless

  • @xTraditionToKill have all of their emotions; that way, it would be hard to tell they weren't human.

  • One of the things the studio complained and later deleted--notice when he looks at the first pod woman forming that her nipple is visible?

  • SO TRUE! THEY ARE HERE ALREADY!

  • Yes they are here.. their called republicans. i`m not laughing . Just like the original movie was an analogy of McCarthyism in the 1950s and his crusade against any so called "RED",..How many actors careers did he destroy...People were to afraid to speak up against him ,but a few brave ones did ,and paid the price. I think they made 4 remakes but the original is still the best..no doubt!!.

  • It's just like the politically correct today, who persecute anyone they deem "racist" or "discriminating" (their definitions never match the real ones), or anyone else who dares to express freedom of speech or even have free thought.  Yes, it's back in full power, and it's not who you think it is. Perhaps for you, it's too late...

  • @SLYSMILESALOT Baloney...the allegory was referencing communism and other forms of collectivism. McCarthyism was basically one guy trying to make a name for himself. He had very little real power, unlike the communists and the seed pods. As soon as people started standing up to him he crumbled. That didn't work so well with the communists.

  • Thanks soo much for posting this clip! When your having one of those days this clip says it all, it can turn a bad thought into laughter!

  • omg! this movie scared the shit outta me when i was a kid! i didn't sleep for a long time!-lol! one of the best-they don't make em like this no more!

  • scifi classic seen this on vhs in 2002 when i was 18 and again on dvd in 2007 when i was 23!

  • It will be weary interesting watching this original after watching the remake.

    It's a good classic, even though I'm not sure what I think about the remake.

  • no he dint play in the blob it was steve mcqueen

  • didnt he play in the blob

  • Obama, Reid, and Pelosi must be pod people. It certainly explains their behavior.

  • I'M NEXT!

  • Kevin mccarthy was so hot.

  • classic

  • Political dissent is the new "N" word.

  • Where is Jesse Jackson? Where is Al Sharpton? WHERE IS OUR FIRST LADY!!! RUN BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!!!

  • This Is Happening now!

  • @realfighter1977 I'm in love with my body snatchers. They like me for my mind, which is actually THEIR mind, not for my snatch.

  • @realfighter1977 It's all about revenge for the poor caterpillars killed when kids get those Mexican jumping beans. Little things mean a lot. Mothra strikes again and again and again. 

  • @realfighter1977 yup, its called the tea party

  • @realfighter1977 It's no longer science fiction.

  • Even though I am usually not a fan of remakes I think this would make for an excellant one.

  • Yeah it's been remade 3 times

    The 1978 version is probabaly the best of the remakes.

  • It' s happening right now!

  • strong story and good perfomances seen this twice, once on vhs in 2002 and the other time on dvd!
