So you see, that's one of the problems with these films. You've got a composer, and or some uncredited guy adding additional music, and it can get pretty hard trying to pinpoint who did what if you don't have some super inside info. Like in this film, the soundtrack is largely orchestrated except for this part where the convicts are making the girls party with them, so of course the music has to be different too, it has to be dirty, it has to swing! It's gotta be the other guy composing at that point. To quote "The IMDB" "Although credited with "additional music", composer Johnny Douglas actually supplied more music than the main composer, Ron Goodwin. According to the official music cue sheets, Douglas wrote 26 mins, Goodwin 19 minutes." Who did what? Probably only Tabonga's 7th cousins know, and if you've ever partied with those space vegetables, you know it's not even worth discussing!
The oldest trick in the book, take advantage of people's curiosity, of course all the rubberneckers are going to look!
"Day Of The Triffids" is one of our favorite movies, and Howard Keel does a fantastic job in what was his only real horror role!
Cinematographer Ted Moore was working overtime on some of these shots. This one through the dancing girl's legs to the drunk with his head on the table, and the zombified drunk girl on the left is too much!
What a scene!!!! These girls are being held captive, but the one dancing on the table seems to be having a pretty good time! One thing's for sure, the music is hot!!!
Then the stupid giant plants from outer space decide to literally crash the party, crash through the windows, crash through the walls!
As the movie goes on, you'll see that you can burn or electrocute or melt the triffids, but shooting doesn't work very well, and who gave this guy the bright idea to try and hit it with a chair?
Why didn't they use the same method we use to keep all the plants in line? Eat them!! Steamed or boiled, with a bunch of butter and some black pepper, maybe some soy sauce! I'll bet those triffids would be at least as good as brussel sprouts or scallop squash, probably better!!
"The Day Of The Triffids" is a brilliant movie, and everybody should go out of their way to see it. The acting is great, the colour is beautiful, and it's just a very solid film on a lot of different levels, and I definitely believe Stephen King saw this movie as a kid!
Here's one last brief, but very cool little tune that The Paul Horn Combo did for the club scene in "Night Tide."
Maybe it's because I was trying to figure out how a person can be in a bar and just ask a complete stranger why somebody was talking to them, and what did they say? 
"Night Tide" could possibly be remade with Angelina Jolie as the mermaid, the only person who could even remotely be as good as the ravishing Linda Lawson was! 
I don't know why I didn't include this song in the last write up on "Night Tide," but it's too good to leave behind because they did a completely brilliant job on this..... Jazzy Little Tune!! 
You don't even want to know what's going on in this octosex nightmare scene! 
Curtis Harrington did a fantabulous job of writing and directing! Dennis Hopper did a fine job of waiting!! They would work together again in 1966 on "Queen Of Blood!"
