    A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

    This was a 2-episode "series" that ends without any resolution except the the aliens are winning. Will they take over the world? We will never know...This is a rip-off of "The Body Snatchers" without regrets. It has the same themes and progression of plot line, as far as it goes. And it does not go very far. 90 minutes if you see it all together or 2 unfulfilling episodes, seen separately.The acting is OK. The direction is OK. The story is "we've seen this before" boring. And just as it is getting good, it ends without an ending.Don't bother. Go watch the original and enjoy. Or even the remake of "The Body Snatchers" is pretty good but this pretty much stinks.Don't bother!

    Luke Perry is not Steve McQueen, but there's no one who could save this stinker. The plot leaps from one disconnected implausibility to another.I can't imagine how anyone could sit through this to the end, no matter how adept they might be at willful suspension of disbelief. I assume the investors needed a tax deduction.The Robin Cook novel is said to be better. It's hard to imagine how it could be worse.It's the only thing on television? Go take a walk instead. You'll feel better and won't have wasted your time.Take a nap, even.Or, there's always South Park.

    A virus, presumably of extraterrestrial origin, takes over human beings.By the numbers made-for-tv movie travels down well-known territory with few redeeming virtues. The familiar story is padded with mumbo jumbo galore and cheesy special effects. Even though the acting by most of the cast is decent, there is little else to be remembered.Recommended only to desperate diehards craving for their sci-fi daily shot!!! With due respect to the canine breeds, skip this dog of a movie and go for the real thing. Rent out Don Siegel's Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), Village of the Damned and the underrated Independence Day or any of those wonderful campy sci-fi B-movies of the 50's... and treat yourself to a pleasurable Saturday afternoon and don't forget the right words: Klaatu barada nikto!Rating: 2/10.because of beautiful locations.

    Space debris falls from the sky and begins to infect people by controlling them . Where have I seen that plot before ? let me see now THE PUPPET MASTERS , THE BLOB , THE THING , the first three QUATERMASS serials , INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS and umpteen DOCTOR WHO stories . It`s impossible not to be reminded of these stories while watching INVASION . It`s also impossible not to be reminded that they all did the same story a whole lot better than INVASION did also
