Invasion of the Body Snatchers

“There was nothing to hold onto - except each other.”

In the small California town of Santa Mira, patients start telling Dr. Miles Bennell (Kevin McCarthy) that a parent or an uncle looks right but is somehow not the same person. Don Siegel follows Miles as he sorts the frightened from the merely troubled, with Becky Driscoll (Dana Wynter) at his side. By night the doctor's office is lit only by a lamp, and the people he trusts keep to the edges of its glow.
