The Invasion Limited Edition

£17.99

Released: 11th November 2024. DO NOT TRUST ANYONE. Since its first publication in 1955, Jack Finney’s classic sci-fi/horror novel The Body Snatchers has inspired numerous adaptations and created a whole subgenre of era-defining alien doppelgangers in books, film, and TV. 2007’s The Invasion was ahead of the curve, its eerily predictive shift toward a virus-like contagion more frighteningly resonant in a post-pandemic world. A space shuttle crashes to Earth carrying an alien organism. Soon people are changing, becoming detached and emotionless. People like CDC director Tucker Kaufman (Jeremy Northam) who is investigating the crash. Meanwhile his ex-wife, psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman), sees the same behaviour in a friend of their son, and a patient claims that her husband is no longer her husband. As people all across Washington D.C. become infected and the insidious epidemic spreads, Carol must fight to protect herself and her son, who might just hold the key to stopping the escalating invasion. Produced by Joel Silver, and also starring Daniel Craig, Jeffrey Wright, and Veronica Cartwright, this edge-of-your-seat thriller is accompanied by a wealth of new and archival extras. LIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY CONTENTS High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentation Original lossless DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio  Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing  Brand new audio commentary by film critics Andrea Subisati and Alexandra West, co-hosts of The Faculty of Horror podcast  Body Snatchers and Beyond, a new visual essay by film scholar Alexandra Heller Nicholas  That Bug That’s Going Around, a new visual essay exploring The Invasion as pandemic prophecy by film scholar Josh Nelson  We’ve Been Snatched Before, an archival featurette from 2007  The Invasion: A New Story, an archival featurette from 2007  The Invasion: On the Set, an archival featurette from 2007  The Invasion: Snatched, an archival featurette from 2007  Theatrical trailer  Image gallery  Illustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing by film critics William Bibbiani and Sally Christie  Reversible sleeve with original and newly commissioned artwork by Tommy Pocket  Double-sided fold out poster featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tommy Pocket
