Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Donald Sutherland's alien clone gets his head bashed in with a shovel. This scene would be considered graphic.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The cloned body snatchers can be grotesque. They emerge from pods as formless, pulsating sacs, and gradually take on the appearance of their victims. The varying stages of their transformation can be uncanny and disturbing looking.
- The concept of the body snatchers: alien lifeforms that replicate and replace human beings while they sleep, can be very frightening and disturbing. Several characters throughout the film express extreme fear and distress at the thought that their loved ones are not really their loved ones, or that they themselves might be replaced. These scenes can be very upsetting.
- The ending sequence, where Donald Sutherland is revealed to be a pod person, is intended to be excruciatingly jarring.
