In Santa Mira, California, Dr. Miles Bennell (Kevin McCarthy) is
baffled when all his patients come to him with the same complaint: their
loved ones seem to have been replaced by emotionless impostors. Despite
others' dismissive denials, Dr. Bennell, his former girlfriend Becky
(Dana Wynter) and his friend Jack (King Donovan) soon
discover that the patients' suspicions are true: an alien species of
human duplicates, grown from plant-like pods, is taking over the small
town.
This remake of the classic horror film is set in San Francisco.
Matthew Bennell (Donald Sutherland) assumes that when a friend (Brooke
Adams) complains of her husband's strange mood, it's a marital issue.
However, he begins to worry as more people report similar observations.
His concern is confirmed when writer Jack Bellicec
(Jeff Goldblum) and his wife (Veronica Cartwright) discover a mutated
corpse. Besieged by an invisible enemy, Bennell must work quickly before
the city is consumed.
