It’s not the obvious indicators of white savagery in movies that are telling, such a Planet of the Apes or The Omega Man (Charlton Heston version) that irks,
but the subtle ones like Invasion of the body snatchers (Donald Sutherland version) that’s telling. The above mentioned are like “I’m gonna colonize you because you are inferior and therefore manifest destiny and all that.
But invasion is where they colonize you (wipe you out) and have you thinking that you’re the crazy one for even suggesting that there’s something wrong!
Very powerful evil. Tricky stuff.
