Tonight Ian J. and I rented The Invasion, the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and let me just say that I wish someone had snatched mine during the movie to spare me the rest.
Ugh — so stupid. Daniel Craig had terrible hair in it, and I rarely have a hard time looking at him. Nicole Kidman, usually so good with accents, gave a linguistic performance that traveled the globe.
The basic premise of the film is that a strain of alien bacteria is infecting humans and rewriting their genetic code to — oh, fuck it, it doesn’t matter. Basically, the way the infected transmit the disease is to projectile vomit all over the other’s face.
It is so gross. And hilarious. By the time Jeremy Northam had pinned Nicole Kidman down and puked all over her face, it was practically a snuff Hepburn & Tracy film.
Ian J. and I, not to be outdone, entertained ourselves by imagining that, in the film, the only way to cure oneself of the infection was to have a “clean” person diarrhea on your face.
What? Too far? Watch the movie. You’ll go further.
