Wow... Dave seems to be a bit of a dumbass. Not only does he do nothing to save the guy who gets eaten, not only does he alert the triffids to their presence, but he can't even break a glass cup when he drops it on the ground. Or was it plastic...? 0_o
@digimbyte Day of the Triffids was the first book I ever read on my own impetus circa 1980. Actually, it's an unusually well-thought-out story and innovative. This video is a bad interpretation -the main fascination about the Triffids was that they looked fairly innocuous (check out the original Penguin illustration) and would be no match for mankind had they not been blinded en masse by the comet. If you were to the film the book verbatim, it would be more like Fernando Meirelles' 'Blindness'
not bad! If I made it a theatrical movie, I'd probably make the triffids make only leaf rustling sounds and maybe some wooden creaks if anything. Its more haunting.
I assume that's a complement and you're not being sarcastic? But yes I did animate it myself. You mean it has a retro-stop motion feel? If so, thanks :)
I love this! The animation is really nice and I love the acting! This was actually amzing!

@digimbyte The original book had no flaws. This animation takes extreme liberties with the story.

2:09 "Clever girl". A reference to Jurassic Park!
Incidentally, I am now in the process of posting the entire 1981 TV series on my channel.

Triffids do not behave like that. They kill their prey and wait for them to decompose. Who wrote this crap!?

Jasonmask37 4 years ago
It uses 3ds max, lots of After Effects work, and edited in Premiere, take a look at the trailer which I was envolved with as well.
