Nick gets an unexpected jolt of excitement when, nursing a hangover, he's the only one not to evacuate an office building that becomes a disaster area after a mishap involving nuclear testing equipment. An unexpected by-product of the accident is that it turns the molecules of the building, as well as Nick and the clothes

A solid sci-fi movie, suffering only from a terrible marketing campaign.

The first film to be released by the pod person John Carpenter, after the real one was abducted by aliens.

As ever Carpenter's execution falls short of his concept.

...a good example of what can happen when a film never makes up its mind what it wants to be.

...being lukewarm is not entirely a bad thing. It beats dead cold.

Another Chevy Chase's film, that could be much better. Despite the special effects, and chilling story, Memoirs is not so funny. But is memorable, for me, at least. Weak.
