More Body Snatching going on

So, we watched the 1978 remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. It moves the setting from a small town in California to San Francisco, adds much improved special effects, but slows and needlessly muddies the action and plot. For me, not anywhere near as satisfying (or, perhaps ironically, as believable) as the original but interesting to watch all the same. Has a very young Jeff Goldblum and a great cameo by Kevin McCarthy (the star of the original movie). My Grade: C
