a solid 1990s classic, some parts of it feel aged today but it's still a definite solid flick as a innocent man tries to figure out why he was framed while on the run from the cops. Highly recommended if you're interested in flicks like this.
Plants from space are replacing people.

I guess they couldn't think of an ending (even though the ending is one of the few great things about the book); instead it just turns into a zombie movie. Still good, though. Plenty scary, with an entertaining cast.

An innocent convict becomes a fugitive.

I'm with Tommy Lee Jones' character: I don't care whether or not Ford killed anyone - or about the one-armed man, and definitely not about a pharmaceuticals conspiracy. The movie's still entertaining, though. When it stays simple - just a hunter and a fugitive - it's quite well done.

2022 movie #154. Terrific remake of the 1956 original. Alien spores from outer space turn people into pod people in San Francisco. Don't know why it took me so long to finally see this.
