Steve Sekely & Freddie Francis - The Day of the Triffids DVD VG/VG

A meteor shower blinds most of the world's population and spreads spores that cause triffid plants to become animated. Bill Masen, a merchant navy officer, escapes the catastrophe after spending the night in a hospital with his eyes bandaged. At a railway station, he meets Susan, an orphaned schoolgirl who also avoided the blinding. They flee the chaotic streets and set off in an abandoned car to reach Masen’s ship, but are attacked by a triffid along the way when the car becomes stuck and barely escape.
