A great movie, better IMHO than either of its imitators.

God bless you Mr McCarthy, and thanks for at least one great film.

I agree - but did you notice that in the remake with Donald Sutherland and Leonard Nimoy that McCarthy is the ‘crazy guy’ running from car to car on the crowded street screaming that there are invaders?

His tone of voice is exactly as it was in the original.
That has got to be one of the best placed cameos in film.

Oops:

It looks like JoeProBono pointed out the cameo in post#1.

Sorry ‘bout that.

Was that really him who died?

Was he buried in a casket, or a pod?
