The Midwich Cuckoos
As a fervent Sci-Fi fan, I've waited for such a remake for over thirty years. It was great seeing the old town again in a new light, and it was equally great seeing the Easter Egg of the original clock tower from the original movie.
It is interesting to think that Walt Disney was involved in such cutting-edge topics back when the subject matter was taboo.
I wrote a blog on the original work many years ago, centering on where the story's original subject matter originated. It seems UFO abductions were then relegated to skeletons in family closets, privy only to close friends, family, and family physicians. Let's hope this series gives the original work its due Justice. So far, it seems to be off to a smashing start. The only thing missing, of course, is George Sanders' charming voice. Thanks.
