Kino Lorber's 4K UHD release of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" offers two aspect ratios (1.85:1 and 2.00:1) with Dolby Vision HDR, elevating contrast and black levels. However, source limitations—like soft grain and occasional haziness—persist, making the improvements marginal over previous Blu-ray releases.

Audio: 80

The DTS-HD MA 2.0 mono track for 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' delivers remarkable clarity and stable, clean dialogue, adding a layer of atmosphere with its preserved fidelity and devoid of hiss or pops. Though it shows its age occasionally, it remains a technically solid and engaging mix.

Extra: 78

This release of Invasion of the Body Snatchers excels with its expansive supplemental content, including four diverse commentary tracks on both the 4K UHD and Blu-ray discs. While some extras from the Olive Signature edition are absent, the new audio commentaries are insightful and worth the upgrade for true fans.
