After all of the horrible reviews I had read for this movie, I had almost lost my interest in seeing it. However, I really like the 70's version of the Body Snatchers and am a sucker for seeing "re-vamped" versions. So I ended up picking it up anyways. And I must say, it was not half as bad as everyone made it out to be. Sure, it wasn't as good as the Donald Sutherland version, but it was not a terrible, gouge your own eyes out film either.
The way the people become the podless pod people is by a virus that is literally vomitted on them by infected people. When they fall asleep, their DNA is altered and they are turned. My only real complaint about the movie is that the ending was positive, and though most people prefer the happy endings, myself included, it wasn't the way it has ended previously in the telling of the story. I almost liked at the end of the other that we still lost.
Do not let the negative reviews stop you from seeing this. It, in my opinion, is way better than some of the other remakes hitting the theaters these days.
