    The story itself is actually pretty generic, but the metaphors that come with it are just too powerful and universal. In addition, the '56 version ended up being too optimistic compared to the '78 Philip Kaufman version.

    "Plants Incarnate Zombies", an earlier soft sci-fi film of human body replacement, such as a long episode of "Yin and Yang Demon Realm", "Monster" and "The End of the World" are similar to them, and the invasion in sleep is related to "Monster Street" ”; ideological infiltration and materialization, your friends, relatives, lovers, who may have been brainwashed (no longer the original emotional ta), the Communist Party’s heart will not die, you can’t get on my sane Highland assimilated me and satirized McCarthyism with the male protagonist surnamed McCarthy. It’s okay; people grow out of the pods, I’m afraid it’s not a biological 3D printer, the biggest bug in the film is that the existence of the two bodies has not been solved; the crowd gathered in the square The overhead shot is very scary, the kind of fear that the rabble crushes you easily in broad daylight; the ending is a bit disappointing without a dark end, (although I want to see the "Lake of Eden"-style sheep into the wolf's den), but combined with that The national conditions of the United States can also accept it: Communism spreads in a small area, but it was obstructed and strangled by Comrade McCarthy in time, hooray! (The heroine is really beautiful, charming and lovely)
