The sage involves illegal substances being smuggled into the United States within a doll, and then the doll being passed along to Susy’s husband at the airport under absorbing but strictly coincidental circumstances. Alan Arkin plays Roat, a seedy character who was supposed to be the intended recipient of the doll/drugs, and Richard Crenna and Jack Weston are two thuggish types who obtain roped into helping Roat try to retrieve the doll.
Hepburn plays her role wonderfully, never once giving the viewer the impression that she isn’t blind. A number of subtle points are made to allude to the strengthening of her other senses, hearing, smell, etc., that one finds well-liked with the loss of inspect. As the criminals perform their define plans to liberate their illicit merchandise, Hepburn’s character, being somewhat naive in the beginning, soon realizes the just sense of the anxiety she’s in, and reacts perfectly within the nature of her character. Arkin plays his character(s) with the serene cunning of a predator hunting its’ prey, maliciously savoring the moments before the figurative destroy. His beatnik appearance and demeanor camouflage his moral do, which is revealed later on within the unfolding of the set. This film is very suspenseful for those with the patience to follow it through to the ruin. It may not have the out and out scares the title might imply, but the behind building of tension and suspense is delectable as the viewer is ‘in the know’ while the main character is left to struggle with the situations. Although an exceptionally strong supporting cast helps, Hepburn really makes this film, and was awarded with an Oscar nomination for her performance. She even went so far as to support a school for the visually impaired and learn to read Braille to better understand her character.

The print on this disc looks very nice and is in wide camouflage anamorphic format. Special features include a featurette on the film, an essay about transferring the play to the silver hide, and trailers for the movie. This is truly a taut thriller capable being released on DVD, and I am appreciative of Warner Brothers for putting it out, even if I secure their plastic and cardboard packaging to be cheap and annoying.

I learned about this movie when my mom was telling me about the scary movies of her day, and she went on about how it was one of the scariest movies she ever saw, and when she and her kid sister left the theatre, her sister was crying colossal crocodile tears, claiming she’d never let herself eye another movie again.

While my aunt will never live that down, my mom is serene panicked by this movie, and I can mutter why. I saw it on AMC in August at midnight, and that was a mistake. This movie fearful me beyond my expectations. Audrey Hepburn was fabulous as Susie Hendrix, the recently blinded woman persued by Alan Arkin, a narcotics dealer who will end at nothing to pick up to a stash that is in Susie’s apartment.
Many claim this movie isn’t scary, but coming from a generation that grew up on Shout, Halloween, Nightmare on Elmstreet and other cheap movie’s that spend gore and `don’t-turn-that-bend’ suprises for scares, it doesn’t mean grand.
`Wait Until Dark’ is so grand more than the typical slasher flick, it is a psychological thriller that takes the viewer on a roller coaster promenade to hell and doesn’t close turning and tossing until the last frame of film fades to dim. On second viewing, if you feel the *sparkle* is fading, impartial station yourself in Susie’s shoes, and you’re in for a whole modern experience.
