DO NOT TRUST ANYONE.
Since its first publication in 1955, Jack Finney's classic sci-fi/horror novel The Body Snatchers has inspired numerous adaptations and created a whole subgenre of era-defining alien doppelgangers in books, film, and TV. 2007's The Invasion was ahead of the curve, its eerily predictive shift toward a virus-like contagion more frighteningly resonant in a post-pandemic world.
A space shuttle crashes to Earth carrying an alien organism. Soon people are changing, becoming detached and emotionless. People like CDC director Tucker Kaufman (Jeremy Northam) who is investigating the crash. Meanwhile his ex-wife, psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman), sees the same behaviour in a friend of their son, and a patient claims that her husband is no longer her husband. As people all across Washington D.C. become infected and the insidious epidemic spreads, Carol must fight to protect herself and her son, who might just hold the key to stopping the escalating invasion.
Produced by Joel Silver, and also starring Daniel Craig, Jeffrey Wright, and Veronica Cartwright, this edge-of-your-seat thriller is accompanied by a wealth of new and archival extras.

Blu-ray is a standout release that breathes new life into this underappreciated 2007 sci-fi remake. While The Invasion may not be everyone’s cup of tea in terms of its more contemporary take on the body-snatcher genre, this limited edition Blu-ray offers a thoughtful and immersive experience. The restoration is top-notch, the special features are incredibly well-rounded, and the attention to detail in the packaging is up to Arrow's usual high standard. Even if you weren’t initially a fan of the film, this release might just change your mind. It’s a definitive edition that fans of both the film and the genre will want to have on their shelf.
