Miss me much? I’ve been on a wee sabbatical, attempting (and failing miserably) to clear some of the other projects off my plate. But now I’m back, with a month-long tribute to the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise. The REAL crew of the Enterprise.
First up is Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), one of the best examples ever of a reimagining done right:
And then we have Pioneer Woman (1973), in which our protagonist is a frontier wife with all of the gumption of a pet rock.

I’m not really the person you want reviewing blaxspoitation, am I? Anyway, it’s not on the list, but I’ve got a doozy for the Nichelle Nichols slot…

What I like is that the 90s remake was called ‘Body Snatchers’, the 2000’s version was called ‘The Invasion’, I am currently planning to launch a 5th version called just ‘Of’.
