Summary: 2 Stars
This film has very little to praise it. My advice is save your money and wait for the release of the orginal tv series.Movie Review: NICE TRY, BUT...
Summary: 3 Stars
THE INVADERS was one of my favorite t.v. shows when I was growing up; Roy Thinnes was superb as David Vincent, the man trying to tell the world that aliens were taking over the earth by inhabiting the bodies of humans. Twenty years after the series went off the air, THE INVADERS became a made for TV movie, and obviously a pilot for another series that didn't come to fruition. Hence, you're given a three hour movie that is not given commercial breaks; therefore, you have some tedious dialogue and redundant chases that ultimately bog the movie down. The special effects, what little they are, are below average, and the direction needed some Geritol.
Scott Bakula as the new David Vincent tries hard but ultimately his actions seem foolish and he's never really convincing as the possessed human. Richard Thomas gets by in his role, but he never possesses the menace he should. Terrance Knox as Detective Coyle has a hard time showing the changes once he's been programmed. His cocking of the head left and right is supposed to show his implant; it's actually hilarious. Elizabeth Pena brings no life to her role as Bakula's reluctant assistant; needed an actress with more vitality and intensity. Pena always seems to underplay her roles to the point she looks bored. Thinnes himself makes a cameo appearance and seems as excited as a slug.
THE INVADERS is not awful; it entertains, even at its lengthy three hours; it's ending is also very disappointing.
Movie Review: Amazing!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the best scifi alien-related movies I've seen so far, and I've seen a lot of them. No clue as to why this movie isn't popular here in the US, in Germany it was a hit. It also seems to be very hard to find for some reason.
Movie Review: Go to the Original TV Series
Summary: 1 Stars
Original version is far better that this "pilot" version. Special effects in the Quinn Martin Production were so real... look at the way this version show the death of an alien. Did you see the UFO's here? And the main character has nothing to do compared to the famous David Vincent role. Forget it!
