    • 1988 October 21, Albert Williams, “Follies; 1000 Airplanes on the Roof”, in Chicago Reader:
      As in the film Invasion of the Body Snatchers, with its spiritually dead, clonelike "pod people," M.'s reaction to his real or imagined encounter with extraterrestrials comes to symbolize the dehumanization and de-emotionalization of contemporary life--the willful denial of connection to other humans and the avoidance of introspection.
