The first adaptation of John Wyndham’s classic sci-fi novel returns to life in a long overdue restoration. The tale of a Europe falling into darkness still shocks with its prescience and cruelty. Directors Steve Sekely and Freddie Francis transform Wyndham’s tale of ecological apocalypse into a story of resolve and compromise. The flowering of man-eating Triffids are the undesired fallout of a disastrous meteor shower, which has blinded everyone who glanced at it. Howard Keel and Janina Faye take us on a tour of a United Kingdom in chaos while Kieron Moore and Janette Scott search for a way to defeat the leafy menace. This film, long in sorry shape, has been returned to its eerie glory to remind new viewers why it was such an epochal text for British science fiction. At last the Triffids live again!
