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 Customers who bought this item also bought How to Steal a Million Charade Two for the Road The Children's Hour My Fair Lady (Two-Disc Special Edition) Customer Reviews for: Wait Until Dark Rating - Wait Until Dark(but not alone) Wait Until Dark w/Audrey Hepburn, Alan Arkin, Richard Crenna: By far this movie is the best for keeping you glued to its every move..From "the get-go" you're yelling at the screen to try to help Audrey survive her ordeal..and when it really gets to the movies "heart", you can't even take a breath..

Read More Rating - Turn Out The Lights Based on the play by Frederick Knott, 1967's WAIT UNTIL DARK was very much "the" thriller of the era, a shocker that set audiences screaming--particularly in the film's final ten minutes, when cinema lights were lowered to the legal limit, placing both characters and audiences in near total blackout for the the movie's climax. The whole thing was a huge success, and it copped Audrey Hepburn still another Academy Award nomination as best actress. ... Read More Rating - Kill The Lights... WAIT UNTIL DARK was one of my favorite thrillers growing up. It always made me spill my snacks during late-night viewings. Susy Hendrix (the enchanting Audrey Hepburn) seems like the perfect prey for the utterly wicked Harry Roat (Alan Arkin). After all, she is a tiny woman, and she is blind. Roat has concocted a brilliant scheme to retrieve a heroin-filled doll that was slipped to Susy's husband, Sam (Efrem Zimbalist, jr.) by its terrified courier. Roat ...

While there are many excellent reviews for "Wait Until Dark," now that I own the DVD, I feel compelled to reiterate for others my deep appreciation and "thrill" for this absolutely wonderful film. As a teenager I was never a fan of Audrey Hepburn--until I saw "Wait Until Dark!" Like many teenagers of the time, one of my favorite genres was "horror/thriller" movies like "Psycho" (1960), "The Birds" (1963), "Comedy of Terror" (1964), and "Rosemary's ...
