Snatchers is a 2019 horror-comedy movie directed by Stephen Cedars and Benji Kleiman with Mary Nepi, Gabrielle Elyse, and J.J. Nolan in the lead roles. The film was first released as a web-series in 2017 and was later adapted into a full-length feature. The story follows high school student Sara (Mary Nepi) who loses her virginity to her boyfriend Skyler (Austin Fryberger) on the night of her 17th birthday. The next day, she realizes that she is pregnant, but the pregnancy is not like any other normal pregnancy. Sara starts to experience unusual symptoms and her belly grows at an alarming rate.

Sara confides in her best friend Hayley (Gabrielle Elyse) and they both try to figure out what's happening to Sara. But before they can make any progress, a group of aliens referred to as 'Snatchers' abduct Sara and impregnate her with their offspring. The two friends now have to navigate through the challenges of high school, pregnancy, and the Snatchers.

As the pregnancy progresses, Sara's condition worsens and she becomes more and more monstrous. The Snatchers, who aim to use Sara's offspring for world domination, become more aggressive in their pursuit of her. The girls team up with Hayley's ex-boyfriend Kyle (JJ Nolan) who is an amateur conspiracy theorist and pick him up on the way to confront the Snatchers and save Sara from the aliens.

The movie offers a perfect blend of horror and comedy, with its witty dialogues and grotesque characters. The humor is not forced but comes naturally from Sara's bizarre metamorphosis, the girls' friendship, and Kyle's one-liners. It doesn't shy away from creating a disgusting atmosphere for its audience, but its tone is always upbeat and never becomes grim.

The performances in the movie are impressive, especially by Mary Nepi, who is convincing as the high-school student who has to endure the unimaginable. Her facial expressions and physical transformation throughout the movie are commendable. Gabrielle Elyse plays the role of a supportive friend but also has moments of selfishness and humor that balance out the story. JJ Nolan brings the comedic relief to the movie, with his conspiracy theories and slapstick humor.

One of the notable aspects of the movie is its feminist undertones. The movie highlights the importance of female friendships and centers the narrative around Sara and Haley's bond. The story also offers an unusual take on virginity and motherhood, subverting cliches of conventional horror movies.

The movie's special effects are impressive, especially the Snatchers themselves. They are depicted as a grotesque-looking alien race that boasts fluid movements and practical special effects that blend naturally into the world. The soundtrack of the movie is catchy and blends well with the tone of the story.

In conclusion, Snatchers from 2019 is a well-crafted horror-comedy film that offers an entertaining viewing experience. Its performances, writing, and special effects make it a must-watch for the fans of the genre. Its feminist narrative and unusual take on traditional horror tropes will make it stand out from the rest.
