A great classic sci-fi horror that thrills by channeling it's chills thru the use of the fears that we tend to hold most as a general populace. The fear that we & our brethen are not we seem to be.
And rarely does the black & white look of the time capture this cultural sub-genre fear of the unknown & magnify it so that even today, Invasion makes the viewer feel the sparseness of trust tha... read more

My 20 Sci- Fi Movies (20 movies items)

"Wilma Lentz: There's no emotion. None. Just the pretense of it. The words, the gesture, the tone of voice, everything else is the same, but not the feeling. This sci-fi is a good psychological sci-fi, the story works well, and sometimes you don't need big visuals to make a sci-fi. This is another movie based on a novel, and it did a good job at keeping the basic story. "
