Body Snatchers

Trivia: The inhuman shriek that the pod people use to alert their brethren of unduplicated humans present was invented for the 2nd film adaptation and carried into this, the 3rd - it is not part of the book, but remains very effective, hence its continued inclusion in film.

More quotes from Body Snatchers

Question: After Marti's father returns to her and Andy, they are driving through the base. Marti's father tells her not to show emotion because they can be fooled. She looks at him and realizes he is one of them. What was different about him that made Marti realize the truth? Her dad was acting normal and I could not see him giving anything away so what did I miss?

Chosen answer: I actually just watched this movie again today and I think it was because he was acting too calm and quiet. Marti might have got suspicious from the slight change in his personality.
