Dr. Miles Bennell

Dr. Miles Bennell


Driving home, I had a lot of questions and no answers. How could Jimmy and Wilma seem so normal now. Surely I had done nothing to cure them. Maybe they wanted me to feel secure but why?

Maybe they're the result of atomic radiation on plant life or animal life. Some weird alien organism - a mutation of some kind...Whatever it is, whatever intelligence or instinct it is that govern the forming of human flesh and blood out of thin air, is fantastically powerful...All that body in your cellar needed was a mind...
Dr. Miles Bennell


In my practice, I've seen how people have allowed their humanity to drain away. Only it happened slowly instead of all at once. They didn't seem to mind...All of us - a little bit - we harden our hearts, grow callous. Only when we have to fight to stay human do we realize how precious it is to us, how dear.
Dr. Miles Bennell


Drugs dull the mind... maybe that's the reason.
Dr. Miles Bennell


Keep your eyes a little wide and blank. Show no interest or excitement.

Dr. Miles Bennell


Help! Wait! Stop. Stop and listen to me!...These people who're coming after me are not human.
Dr. Miles Bennell


Look, you fools. You're in danger. Can't you see? They're after you. They're after all of us. Our wives, our children, everyone. They're here already. YOU'RE NEXT!
Dr. Miles Bennell


You know her uncle, Uncle Ira?...Well Miles, she's got herself thinking he isn't her uncle. She thinks he's an imposter or something.
Becky Driscoll


They're like huge seed pods!
Becky Driscoll


I want to love and be loved. I want your children. I don't want a world without love or grief or beauty. I'd rather die.
Becky Driscoll


He's in here. He's in here. Get him. Get him.
Becky Driscoll


It's like the first impression that's stamped on a coin. It isn't finished.
Jack Belicec


We can't let you go. You're dangerous to us. Don't fight it, Miles, it's no use. Sooner or later, you'll have to go to sleep.
Jack Belicec


Less than a month ago, Santa Mira was like any other town. People with nothing but problems. Then, out of the sky came a solution. Seeds drifting through space for years took root in a farmer's field. From the seeds came pods which had the power to reproduce themselves in the exact likeness of any form of life...Your new bodies are growing in there. They're taking you over cell for cell, atom for atom. There is no pain. Suddenly, while you're asleep, they'll absorb your minds, your memories and you're reborn into an untroubled world...Tomorrow you'll be one of us...There's no need for love...Love. Desire. Ambition. Faith. Without them, life is so simple, believe me.
Dr. Kauffman
