A major change of pace for actor Rock Hudson, known for his light comedies and he-man adventure roles. Unfortunately, the public wasn't ready for it and director John Frankenheimer's harrowing sci-fi drama quickly faded from view only to be rediscovered two decades later and become reevaluated as a cult classic.
An engaging film, I've found myself casually watching it roughly once a year for several years now. I enjoyed it when I came across it much farther back, but TCM has had it in their rotation for at least the past few years.
