I've always remembered this movie as amazing, and seeing it again for the first time in many years confirms that it still holds it's title as my all time favorite suspense/scary movie. DVD Review: great suspense

Summary: 3 Stars
Last 10 minutes are still pretty fun, but otherwise ... whew! Way too over orchestrated in almost ridiculous ways, very campy dialogue, sudden, unexplainable character developments and a very weird, very 60's cheesey love song at the finale. A shame really.DVD Review: DVD Wait Until Dark
Summary: 5 Stars
If you want to see a "clean" gripping DVD...watch Wait Until Dark...Audrey Hepburn is her usual charming self...she plays a believable blind girl that is coping well with her challenges. Her support cast is terrific! The story is a good one!! :)DVD Review: very nice
Summary: 5 Stars
bought this for a gift for Christmas. not viewed yet. arrived within a week of ordering.
Description of Wait Until Dark
A photographer's blind wife, trapped in her New York apartment by an evil trio who are ready to murder to retrieve a heroin-filled doll hidden in her apartment, cleverly outwits them. Music by Henry Mancini. Based on the long running Broadway play by Frederick Knott.Audrey Hepburn's last Oscar nomination was for this adaptation of Frederick Knott's famed stage thriller about a blind woman, a con man (Alan Arkin), and a doll full of heroin. Thanks to Hepburn's husband, a photographer who does a good deal of traveling, she's unknowingly come into possession of said doll, which was given to him on a plane by a comely young drug runner who winds up dead. The murderous Arkin, aided by sympathetic henchman Richard Crenna, will let nothing stand in the way of his obtaining it, even if it comes down to assaying multiple "personalities" in order to visit and terrorize Hepburn; Crenna is unwillingly enlisted to help. However, the "world's champion blind lady" (as Hepburn sardonically states) is more than up to the task of defending herself in her basement Manhattan apartment in a heart-stopping climax that to this day still defines the way horror movies with jack-in-the-box psychos are made. Despite the obvious staginess of it all (the entire action takes place in Hepburn's apartment), it still works magnificently, thanks to Hepburn's steely will and Arkin's deadly, sadistic madman. A helpful hint: turn out all the lights when you watch it; theaters back in 1967 did so, killing the guiding lights during the film's last 15 minutes. We can't tell you why, but trust us, it's worth it. --Mark Englehart
