Movie Reviews of The Day of the Triffids
Movie Review: MISLED BY BAD AMAZON INFO
Summary: 1 Stars
I should have read more comments before buying this garbage for almost $25. It's described as wide screen - something I've been looking for forever - but it's just another AWFUL pan and scan hack job.
It's a disgrace that AMAZON doesn't correct the information on this product after all the complaints about this misinformation. Moreover, they shouldn't even be selling it as it is a worthless junk!
UPDATE: I purchased this directly FROM AMAZON and not the Marketplace and ultimately Amazon gave me a full refund.
Movie Review: Terrible Transfer - Good Movie
Summary: 1 Stars
If any of my old videofile customers are still out there that bought laserdiscs from Sight & Sound in Waltham, MA., you'll know that when I tell you this dvd is bad, it's bad! The widescreen laserdisc was much better than this terrible dvd. It seems the company that put this dvd out is not interested in giving the buyer a decent movie experience. The movie itself is classic sci-fi at it's best! I would not recommend this version to any of my old customers. You usually get what you pay for!Movie Review: A Classic Destroyed

I was thrilled when I heard that one of my all time favorite films,Day Of THe Triffids was to be released on DVD.My excitment turned to disgust moments after receiving the film...the DVD is presented Panned and Scanned..if that's not bad enough,the print used in the transfer is all but unwatchable.Hopefully,someday,this classic film will get the treatment it desrves and will be released in it's CinemaScope glory..but untill then...DO NOT BUY THIS DVD!Movie Review: Fine Film Falls Victim to Poor DVD Presentation

Let me say at the outset that 1962's "Day of the Triffids" (in its original form) is one of my favorite Sci-Fi Films, but this DVD presentation doesn't do it justice, and that's putting it kindly. Although the cover claims that this version is "Digitally Mastered", the color is in fact terrible, and the movie (originally shot in Cinemascope) isn't even presented letterboxed! A real disappointment!!Movie Review: More stinkweed than Triffid

Allied Artists really hit into a double-play this month; ATTACK OF THE CRAB MONSTERS is my pick for most disappointing DVD of 2002, and DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS gets the award for WORST.A truly excellent sci-fi classic, TRIFFIDS, a Cinemascope film, is released pan&scan from no better than a third-generation VHS master. The colors look horrible and the picture's unwatchable.
