5-stars! (i was born in 1965 ) I just saw this episode on dvd a half hour ago! wow! john newland (one step beyond host!) and antoinette bower!

@hauntedscarecrowmurd You're right! I missed your comment until I came back & was thinking about a comment of my own. "Catspaw" was a favorite episode of mine. Remember "Journey to Babel"? Spock was trying to figure out why a murder had been committed & said there was no logic in it. An Andorian ambassador advised Spock that murders are usually committed for reasons of passion, not logic. That Andorian was Reggie Nalder!
Thriller scared me so bad when i was younger, but i had to watch and really enjoyed this show. Thanks for bringing to us. This august complete series will be available...but costs over $100!
This episode was written by Richard Matheson who years ago wrote the novel, I AM LEGEND which was the basis for the Will Smith movie. Matheson who is Stephen King's favorite short story writer also wrote some of the best Twilight Zone episodes. I think that he is still alive.
@gaIIery And don't forget it was based on a story by August Derleth, who was so instrumental in preserving HP Lovecraft's work for future generations.

No. Thank YOU. You are a god. These are amazing. I am stuck at home without cable or satellite, and your movies have kept me sane.
