Season 11 Episode 9: Invasion of the Body Snatchers
from Missing Real with Mike D'Arrigo · host Michael D'Arrigo
The title of this classic sci-fi thriller might be a bit misleading. It's not about kidnappers or grave robbers. Get this: strange plants from space land on Earth and begin copy-pasting humans! That means there are two YOUs! Only the original you doesn't get to survive! The duplicate you isn't really "you", it's an alien intelligence with a secret agenda to take over our society. And they get you when you sleep! This is years before Freddy Krueger got everyone downing coffee like their lives depended on it. Sounds terrifying, don't it? Maybe I can lighten things up a little and share my insights on this superb 1978 remake starring Donald Sutherland and the OG Spock, Leonard Nimoy! Things are about to get highly illogical, but stay awake at all costs!
