    They made a movie out of Puppet Masters - it wasn't that good, IIRC. Donald Sutherland was in it. I liked the book. It also promoted nudism.

    The Sixth Column was also released as The Day After...

    Didn't need to see that. Never watched the show. This ranks in with the Greek vase in the Correia thread - nope - didn't need to see that either.
