V. Top notch 80s sci fi about alien lizards ruling the world and the human resistance to their invasion.
Get on it Hollywood. Todays fans would eat that shit up if done properly.
It did have a remake attempt in 2009
Really? I guess they tried to run it as a network show and not a streaming show. Cause I never even heard of it.
Still. It’s been a decade. Let’s try again.
First miniseries was great, and filled with Nazi allusions and outright references. Second miniseries, which saw us beating the lizards, was OK as completion of story and sci-fi action adventure, but more superficial. TV series followup undid the victory and totally sucked.
2009 remake was an inconsistent mess, but with decent production values. Canceled without resolution after one season.
