  Maybe we should just watch John Wayne in the Green Berets and scream Hurray! for the good guys. That review makes Invasion look a lot more interesting to me now

      No, it said "the fourth film version", not the fourth remake.

            Noyce one. (?) The one with Donald Sutherland. I thought it was very scary, a paranoia roller coaster ride, and that was all I wanted from it.

              Phillip Kaufman directed the stylish 1978 remake. Kevin McCarthy's cameo is an inspired moment, like he's spent 23 years running from Santa Mira.

              i think the first one was excellent but the remake from 78 was outstanding.

              When Meg Tilly (?) goes "over" and she tells her husband not to fight, that there's no escape, that was one very chilling moment. Forest Whitaker was good as well. Doesn't get the kudos that 1 & 2 do, but a damn solid effort well worth seeking out.

                In Agnes of God she was so heartbreakingly beautiful. Just perfect. She alwys looked like she was wasted, part of her charm. Similar to the absolutely perfect Joanne Whalley.
