I've always had a facination with films about aliens that try to take us over by imitating us. Here are all the films I know of that follow such a plotline. And yes, I also included some television shows as well. (I did NOT include movies that end with the main character waking up and finding out the whole thing was a dream.)

Invasion Of The Body Snatchers ('56)
Invasion Of The Body Snatchers ('78)
The Body Snatchers
The Invasion (2007)
Invasion (1997)
The Puppet Masters
The Faculty
Not Of This Earth ('57)
Not Of This Earth ('88)
Not Of This Earth ('95)
The Thing ('82)
V (New series)
Invasion America
The Last Starfighter
The Hidden
They Live
The Arrival
The Astronaut's Wife
Men In Black

There may be others, but that's all I can think of at the moment.

Hostile aliens that imitate humans? Who needs TV or movies? Just come to the staff meeting at my office and you'll find plenty.

Well, not really. But there's this one scene in the movie where Martin Short's character picks up a female prostitute who turns out to be a martian in disguised. ;)
