This gritty remake of the classic sci-fi thriller, set in San Francisco, offers a contemporary update to the classic tale of the pod people. In this iteration, the social critique shifts from the anti-communist sentiments of the ‘50s to the urban paranoia of the ‘70s. As spores descend from the cosmos over the Bay Area, the city flourishes with vibrant new plant life, transforming residents into drone-like shadows of their former selves Two health department officials (Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adam) discover the chilling reality as the extraterrestrial threat intensifies with each moment. Also starring Jeff Goldblum, Veronica Cartwright, and Leonard Nimoy!
