SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved Wait Until Dark, try these.

See No Evil poster 01

Movie / 1971 / Crime / Thriller

See No Evil

Why this pick

Like Wait Until Dark, it turns a blind heroine’s home into an exquisitely tense danger zone, relying on audience awareness, sound, and mounting dread rather than spectacle.

Hush poster 02

Movie / 2016 / Horror / Thriller

Hush

Why this pick

A stripped-down home-invasion thriller whose deaf protagonist must outthink an intruder; it shares Wait Until Dark’s tactile suspense and resourceful, isolated heroine.

The Collector poster 03

Movie / 1965 / Drama / Thriller

The Collector

Why this pick

Its cat-and-mouse tension, carefully controlled interiors, and unnerving power imbalance make it a strong companion to Wait Until Dark’s intimate psychological menace.

10 Cloverfield Lane poster 04

Movie / 2016 / Horror / Science Fiction / Thriller

10 Cloverfield Lane

Why this pick

This tightly contained thriller sustains the same uncertainty about whom to trust, with a trapped protagonist reading danger through small details and shifting performances.

Deathtrap poster 05

Movie / 1982 / Comedy / Crime / Drama / Thriller

Deathtrap

Why this pick

A polished single-house suspense game built around deception, reversals, and sharply calibrated character duels—ideal if Wait Until Dark’s theatrical precision appealed.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

A woman named Lisa takes a flight from Montreal to New York City, smuggling bags of heroin sewn inside an old-fashioned doll. When she disembarks, Lisa becomes worried upon seeing a man watching her at the John F. Kennedy International Airport and gives the doll to a fellow passenger, professional photographer Sam Hendrix for safekeeping. She is roughly escorted away by the man. Later, when she calls Sam about the doll, he and his wife Susy, who is blind from an auto accident, are unable to find it.
