Clip from The Alfred Hitchcock Hour episode Final Escape

[hsvanillakittens]

OMG is that Edd Byrnes??

[antoniod]

I HATE it when that happens!

[wpnwilo1]

This episode featured in any nightmare I had as a child. I'm convinced I want to be cremated when I die so there is no chance of being buried alive!

[wordfromdownunder]

Thanks Rob - that's comedy!

Why has the 85-89 version not been released on DVD! Think you get it on ioffer but it's TV vhs recorded and transferred to DVD. I can't believe series one from 85 is not out...

[murphy341]

@peterdelane did that star a guy with a moustache??

[chickydee12]

@jkoruty Sorry, my english teacher showed it to my class, I'm not sure where he found it :(

[chickydee12]

@wotsgonon1 Sorry, I don't know where my teacher found it :/

[chalatenango234]

my pastor used this last scene as an analogy of life and faith an how what if what you have been holidng on to results into a dead thing and when you flick on the light its too late...that was used for our easter service I have to see this movie.

[chickydee12]

[wotsgonon1]

[gaIIery]

The music really works.

[lilmissrom]

amazing! the 80s remake is great! does anyone know any links to them?

[KellyGreen5555]

Can you post the Season Hubley version from the Alfred Hitchcock Hour first shown in October 1985?

[nanajanamike]

A classic episode.This B&W show was an hour long,but the 80s remake told the story better and was a lot more chilling in a half-hour!

[fromthesidelines]

Great mystery and murder stories, such as this, often end this way, as the "anti-hero" usually discovered his "perfect plan" had "one fatal flaw" that literally sealed his doom...

[Sengleaboy]

The best from the best.

[yohane27]

i can never forget this story ....i remember the 80's remake...the end freaked me out!

[SeoDragon]

My friend told me about this like 5 years ago, I've randomly remembered the tale throughout the years but never remembered what it was originally from, thanks to you, and wikipedia, i now know, thankew :D

[Louie800]

I saw this episode on tv.Season Hubley.

I did not see Edd Byrnes played the character,

but it seems more believable and macabre than

a woman playing it.Men tend to do really evil things. Thanks for posting.I would love to see Edd complete episode.

[retrotvluver]

Good grief...I thought the '80s color remake with Season Hubley was the first time this story was told; never knew it first appeared in 1964 with a different cast! But it was a great episode nonetheless!

[floopehobaloobie]

Cool episode , Stephen Mcnally was great too. Edd Byrnes showed depth to his performance. I don't know if it's available on dvd or not.

[babygiaa]

where can I find the remake from the 80's ?

[ComePlayWithUsDanny]

I loved this episode....literally just talking about this with a friend and found the clip! Classic buried alive fear come true. If u can find this episode somwhere, worth watching!

[sjt540]

i love the remake from the 80's

[CathyRhiannon]

Thanks very much for the clip. Edd Byrnes was a good dramatic actor - - it's too bad he didn't get enough roles where he could show it.

YouTunes needs more Edd Byrnes!
