INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (1978) — w/ “Best of Donald Sutherland” Pre-Show @ 2pm

July 21 : 3:00 pm 5:00 pm

“Philip Kaufman’s paranoid remake of ‘Invasion of the Body Snatchers’ builds from a whisper to an otherworldly shriek. It’s still a gloriously creepy metaphor for modern life.” -Adam Nayman, The Ringer

From acclaimed filmmaker Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff) comes this chilling ’70s adaptation of Jack Finney’s classic novel The Body Snatchers. Filmy spores fall from space over San Francisco, and the city blossoms with beautiful new flora. People take the flowers home and, as they sleep, the plants creep over them, devouring their bodies and stealing their identities—their emotions, their uniqueness, their souls. If you notice an eerie change in someone very close to you, chances are you’re next! More than just a highly effective sci-fi thriller, Invasion of the Body Snatchers treats contemporary problems of urban paranoia and loss of individuality with intelligence and sensitivity… and ends with the single most horrifying frame in movies. Featuring a brilliant screenplay by W.D. Richter (Big Trouble in Little China), gritty camerawork by Michael Chapman (Raging Bull) and awe-inspiring special effects, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a pulse-pounding shocker with wonderful performances by Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams, Leonard Nimoy, Jeff Goldblum and Veronica Cartwright.

Come out early for a cavalcade of clips highlighting the greatest moments of Donald Sutherland’s incredible career! Pre-show begins at 2 pm.
