When health official Elizabeth Driscoll (Brooke Adams) notices that her lover has become strangely distant this sets in train a series of shocking discoveries that sees both her & colleague Matthew Bennell (Donald Sutherland) fleeing for their lives to the sound of ear-piercing alien screams Remakes of great films are usually on a hiding to nothing but Philip Kaufman&s brilliant update of the 1956 classic is a rare & memorable exception Transposing the action to the heart of San Francisco allows Kaufman to retain all the suspense of Jack Finney&s original story while adding caustic social commentary about the selfishness of the 1970s "me generation" that remains all too relevant today But it&s a paranoid thriller first & foremost based on one of the most psychologically terrifying of all premises
