The reason I'm now watching this British horror movie from the early '60s is because since I've been reviewing films and TV appearances of the original "Dallas" stars in chronological order for the last two months, I'm presently at 1962 with this, Howard Keel's contribution to my list that I've just mentioned. He plays an American Navy man in England with bandages in his eyes when a meteor shower blinds many of the public wandering outside the European countries which includes France and Spain as well. He eventually also finds a pre-teen English girl and a French woman who also managed to avoid the blindness of that night. Oh, and yes, there are monster plants of the title killing anyone they encounter abounding around. I'll stop there and just say that despite the pretty ridiculous premise I've just described, I found myself liking the acting and therefore somewhat caring for the characters. That also includes a married couple in a lighthouse tower who are scientists that have no contact at all with the other characters. One of whom, Janette Scott, is quite luminous in her beauty and does some great screaming when the occasion is provided. As for those plants, well, I thought when shown at night some effective chills were provided but when shown in the daytime, the cheesiness was in abundance. So when I watched this on YouTube, it was on a program called Cinema Insomnia hosted by a Mr. Lobo who did plenty of sketches that were amateurishly funny and had also some vintage commercials, and various trailers that also provided some enjoyment for me. So in summary, I enjoyed The Day of the Triffids for some scares and unintentional humor which was good enough for me.
