I've just read a load of positive reviews on IMDB so I'm going to take a punt at it. I was going to get House of Wax as my second disc I think, but I'll see if anything else takes my fancy when I'm there, I have most of the ones I want already!

It's a very good thriller. I've only seen it once, a long time ago.

I haven't seen it but it's currently in my cart. I think I have enough points for a £50 voucher so I'll probably redeem those and then buy some of the ones I don't have and are currently in the 2 for £15 offer.

There is a pile on my bedroom floor of the ones I bought last time that offer was on and haven't yet been watched, so it'll be some time until it sees the inside of my Blu-ray or UHD player!

I really like Wait until dark, it's all centred around a flat so is a bit play like with only about 6 main characters, but it is pretty tense at times, there are scenes when bad guys are lurking in the shadows and playing with Hepburns mind due to her being blind.
Hepburn gives a really strong performance as she tries to survive despite her disability and actually use it to her advantage to outwit them.
Definitely recommended.

Thank you both
I'm going to buy it after work anyway! It's funny how there is no DVD though.

I was actually thinking of getting one of the Mutiny of the Bounty films but I don't know which one is better. I think I've only seen the 80's version with Mel Gibson. I'm guessing that the Brando version is the more spectacular of the two.

I'm not sure why, but the title didn't mean anything when I Justin's post. I've just looked at my collection and realised I own the Warner Home Video DVD, which I last saw in March 2011.

Having read the overview, I do have vague memories of it and think it was a lightly effective and tense thriller. It's something I'll need to put on a list to rewatch sometime soon.

I like the Brando/Trevor Howard/Richard Harris one, but the best film of the story is the one with Charles Laughton and Clark Gable.

I really enjoyed the Gibson / Hopkins version of Mutiny on the Bounty.

Wonder why they dropped the 'Mutiny on' bit from the title?
