Television's version of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" introduces David Vincent (Roy Thinnes), a tired architect that during a late night drive comes across members of an alien invasion force, human-like but having two defects: an extended pinky on the right hand and the need for occasional regeneration. As he tries to warn others, he becomes a threat to the aliens, but also gains the ire of those suspicious of his mental state.
His only ally is his friend/partner (James Daly) who has his own doubts about Vincent's sanity. Vincent befriends a widow (Diane Baker) that runs a small town store and she appears to believe in his story, adding one more in his arsenal of compatriots.
This pilot features music by Dominec Frontiere, original and culled from his own creations for "The Outer Limits." Also integral to the story is Ellen Corby, years before her Emmy-winning turn as "Grandma Walton", as an kindly old lady that is not as she appears to be.
Though the show lasted a brief two seasons, it is still memorable as one of the 60's most unique evening dramas.
