Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
The 1956 Invasion of the Body Snatchers was a B-movie filmed in three weeks. And while the acting is not great (Kevin McCarthy does a decent job of going crazy), it's a good film because of the plot. The music is very much B-movie music, but that just enhances the mood and genre. I do wish the DVD widescreen had been real widescreen, and not 4:3 letterbox.
If you do watch the DVD, don't bother to watch the interview with Kevin McCarthy. The interviewer is an idiot. If you do want to watch it, fast-forward whenever the interviewer is talking and just listen to what Kevin says. It's pretty short and full of fluff anyway.
