They grow... Know... Walk... Talk... Stalk... And Kill!"; "From the greatest science-fiction novel of all time!"; "Spine Chilling Terror"; "The Triffids are coming! The Triffids are growing! The Triffids are killing!"; "A brain-chilling tale of tomorrow happens in our world today!"; "The Triffids are coming to devour the human race!"; "From the greatest science-fiction novel of all time!"; "... suddenly the hideous crawling things are everywhere... and no one can escape!"; "From the nightmare novel that made the world shudder"; "From the Novel by John Wyndham, author of 'Village of the Damned'") starring Howard Keel, Nicole Maurey, Janette Scott, Kieron Moore, Mervyn Johns, and Janina Faye. Note that Janette Scott is best remembered for her starring role in this movie, which was immortalized in the lyrics of the song from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" that says "And I really got hot When I saw Janette Scott fight a triffid that spits poison and kills." She divorced her first husband and married Mel Torme in 1966, which pretty much ended her career, as she quickly had two children. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Joseph Smith Important Added Info: Note that when this movie was released, the studio had a clever promotion where they issued a "$1,000 reward" certificate that would be paid to the first person who delivered a human-eating plant to the theater. They passed these certificates out along with heralds to draw people into the theater. Our consignor owns one of the original certificates, and he made a photocopy of it which will be included along with the poster (but it is a REPRODUCTION, and NOT an original certificate). Condition: good to very good. There are many tiny staple holes around the edges and a few smudges, but otherwise, the poster is in pretty good condition. Learn More about condition grades
