I loved this as a kid, 28 days later really rips it off in a way! Ready for a remake? If it?s done well then I will be first in line!
28 Days Later borrows heavily from the structure of this...only instead of zombies...their man eating plants...sweet
well intentioned with a decent cast, this movie is a snoozefest...simply drags and what action there is consists of plant-like creatures inching along a mostly blind population. For insomniacs, suggested viewing is fifteen minutes twice nightly..
No one asks why a meteor shower blinds people and brings killer plants to earth simultaneously. I'm not going to write it, but my opinion of this movie rhymes with "Driss koovie tucking zucks"
While much of the earth's population is blinded by a brilliant meteor shower, small plants called triffids undergo horrifying mutations causing them to grow, acquire mobility, and feed on humans
Great monster movie. Walking plants,beautiful girls,end of the world. Reminds me of 30 DAYS OF NIGHT,THE LAST MAN ON EARTH,POD PEOPLE,THE STAND,THE HAPPENING. If you like strange sci fi movies you will love this one watch it for free on youtube
Loved the book, looks like the film wasnt so highly appreciated but id still like to see it so i can make my own judgement.
Uneventful and silly, but light entertainment if you can get sucked into the funny but terrible acting.
No recent reviews.
I'M interested in a film adapatation of day of the Triffids it's a great book that would go very well into cinema, take the opening scene of 28 Days Later and add some bandages around the main character's face and some people groping blindly in the streets and you have yourself the opening scene of Day of The Triffids
Instead I found out it's a boring B-movie
*goes off into the corner and cries*
Oh well there's still hope the studio that owns the rights might just turn it over for not-alot
*crosses fingers and ends comment that may as well be a review*
