Review

b picture that is both indicative of the genre and responsible for launching steve mcqueen’s career. the subtext of the film speaks to the same fears that the invasion of the body snatchers addresses, namely the infiltration of communist thought. the leading lady, aneta corsaut, though unknown and unheralded, did a good job by my standards. it’s a short, fun picture with good color. a good time passer.
