Invasion (1997)

Small rocks fall from the sky which, when touched, trigger a latent virus that has always existed in humans and begins mutating them into an alien species. Taking advantage of its hive mentality, the aliens are absolutely dedicated to transforming every human on Earth and do so with alarming swiftness. Only a small group of humans remain who have the medical knowledge to devise antibodies to reverse the effects of the virus.

Invasion plays like a '90s TV take on Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Both deal with people being replaced by emotionless versions of themselves, spreading like a virus and creating paranoia. The difference? Body Snatchers is tense and timeless — Invasion feels like a watered-down version with weaker pacing and dated effects. It hits similar themes, but without the same impact. Worth a watch if you're a fan of that classic alien-infiltration vibe, but don’t expect it to match the original's punch.
