Invasion changes again

InvasionoftheBodySnatchers.jpgTo distance themselves from the multiple movies of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the people behind the remake, revisualisation or some other rubbish, have decided to once again change the name of the movie...great. According to IGN Film Force they're now calling themselves...

The Visiting...- clearly de-emphasizing the aliens' hostile intentions while also avoiding confusion with the new ABC television series.

More confusion for the PR and marketing people. Still, there's a huge incentive to see this movie, see if you can spot what...

The story, which is still based roughly on the old 1956 Body Snatchers film, stars Nicole Kidman as a Washington psychiatrist who stumbles onto an alien epidemic that alters human behaviour. As she investigates further, she comes to realize that her son might be the key to stopping an alien invasion. The Visiting also stars Daniel Craig (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider) and Jeremy Northam (The Singing Detective). Oliver Hirschbiegel (Das Experiment) is directing the film.

Yes, you got it right. The Director. Hopefully he'll be the saving grace of this movie.
