The Invasion

July 9th 2007 02:33
The Invasion, also known as The Visiting is a 2007 science fiction film based on a screenplay by Dave Kajganich, originally meant to be based on the 1956 film Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Initially directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig portraying the lead roles, Warner Bros. Pictures sought a revision of The Invasion with rewrites by the Wachowski brothers and re-shoots by director James McTeigue. The film is slated for release on August 17, 2007 in the United States and Septeber 6th in Australia.


A space shuttle mysteriously crashes on Earth, and an extraterrestrial disease in the wreckage begins infecting human beings. A psychiatrist from Washington DC, Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman), and her colleague Ben Driscoll (Daniel Craig) discovers that the transformation caused by the infection is triggered by REM sleep, robbing them of their humanity. As the infection spreads, fewer people can be trusted. Fighting to stay awake, Carol looks for her son, who may hold the answer to stopping the invasion.

Nicole Kidman as Carol Bennell, a psychiatrist who works in Washington DC.

Love the Directors earlier work (Das Experiment, Downfall) and the story is one of my faves of all time. (the Don Siegel original being the best)....sadly putting up with Nicole Kidman, i doubt I can do it.
