The Day of Treffids (1963)
67%RT Audience Score: 51%
Awards & Nominations: NA
The Day of the Triffids, a 1963 sci-fi thriller, has garnered mixed reviews from critics over the years. While some praise its deft pacing and vividly paranoid premise, others criticize its script inconsistencies and lengthy romantic interludes. However, as a highly intelligent and verbose critic, I must say that the film’s botanical dread and uneven but sometimes effective effects make it a good siege narrative. Though it may be short on awe-inspiring moments and lose some of the tension and terror from the acclaimed novel, it remains thought-provoking and scary at times. And let’s not forget the unintentional humor and customary moralizing, which add a touch of levity to this old-fashioned plot picture unhampered by artistic pretensions. All in all, The Day of the Triffids is above par for the course and worth a watch for fans of the genre.
The Day of the Triffids is a classic sci-fi thriller that will leave you feeling paranoid about plants for days. While some critics found it lacking in awe-inspiring moments and plagued by script inconsistencies, I found it to be a fun and suspenseful siege narrative with some effective special effects. Sure, it may be unintentionally funny at times and the romantic interludes can be a bit lengthy, but overall it’s a solid film of its genre. Just don’t watch it if you’re planning on doing any gardening anytime soon.

A sci-fi thriller (1963) that sticks in the mind, thanks to deft pacing and a vividly paranoid premise.

TOP CRITIC
Although riddled with script inconsistencies and irregularities, it is a more-than-adequate film of its genre.

Sometimes unintentionally funny, and it could have done without the customary moralising.

The book is a deserved classic, but this film loses most of the tension and all of the terror in the transition.
