BODY SNATCHERS (1993)

Lifeless retelling of the body snatchers story.  This time around a young woman living with her family on a military base notices that the people around her are acting like lifeless drones.  Then one evening while taking a bath she discovers that aliens are trying to take over by replacing people with clones.  After that, she and her boyfriend run around all over the joint hiding and fighting aliens.  It's pretty boring and lightweight with a lame ending.

Very little action, two quick nude scenes, boring story, very little blood, zero gore, Dwayne from THE LOST BOYS.  According to Box Office Mojo this film made only $400 grand at the theater and I can see why.  Skip it.  Then again Roger Ebert seemed to love this movie and gave it four stars out of four!  So what the fuck do I know?
