German director Oliver Hirschbiegel's notoriously troubled version of Jack Finney's 1955 novel The Body Snatchers — the fourth — was shot in 2005 and shelved, reportedly because his cut lacked action. After a Wachowski-brothers rewrite, V FOR VENDETTA director James McTeigue did significant reshoots in early 2007 — Hirschbiegel was supposedly unavailable — and the result is a frantic mess that opens with a scene plucked from the film's third act that smack... read more
