It's great to finally be able to own some of the classics on DVD. I have lots of VCRs, that's not the problem, is problem is that VHS quality can never match DVD resolution and long playing without degradation and the other menu benefits. And this movie is a classic! I'd highly recommend 'Wait Until Dark' for those that love a great suspense movie without all the gore and sexual innuendos, gratuitous special effects, etc. of modern films. The classics, like this one, can built much more realistic drama without all of that.

Movie Description "The gripping tale of a blind woman confronted in her apartment by three criminals with an incredibly elaborate and sinister scheme. One of the first true jump-out-of-your-seat thrillers. The blinds moving up andidown...the squeaking shoes...and then theiknife whistling past her ear... Now two are left: Susy, recently blinded and still learning how to live in a sighted world, and Roat, a psychopathic killer. Roat wants a heroin-stuffed doll he thinks Susy has. All Susy wants is to survive. Dim the lights, check the door's chain-lock, and brace yourself for a chiller as polished as the steel of Roat's blade. Audrey Hepburn earned her fifth Academy Award nomination as Susy. Alan Arkin is pure evil as Roat, master of disguise and accents. Jack Weston and Richard Crenna co-star as his henchmen. Building to a heart-pounding one-on-one confrontation, Wait Until Dark "belongs to the screen's most memorable thrillers." (David Shipman, The Story of Cinema)." I've always loved this film. I remember watching when I was a kid and it scared me. Audrey Hepburn gives a riveting performance! Loved this film. Enjoy!~~~~~Read full review
This is one of my favorite movies of all times. Audrey Hepburn is such a wonderful actress and this movie is one of her best. The last 10 minutes of this movie will have you on the edge of your seat!

I've really enjoyed getting to see this awesome film again. I can still recall audiences jumping out of their seats at a particularly shocking scene (don't worry, I won't give anything away). Hepburn and Arkin are particularly good, with solid support from Richard Crenna & Jack Weston. The little girl who plays Gloria deserves a gold star as well. If you get a chance to watch this one, don't miss it! The dvd arrived well-protected, on time and plays really well. Thank you for making this film available for purchase!
