Great book, average movie.

Synopsis.

The Triffids were plants bio engineered by the Soviets, they fed on meat and could uproot themselves. They got accidentally set loose when a Soviet plane carrying their seeds crashed.

The story starts with a meteor shower that blinds everyone on earth. Then the Triffids basically come along and its like a buffet in Vegas for them.
