Yeah, this one was more about the "spiritual-sociological malaise" that lay within the suburban lifestyle. Hidden paranoia that existed "beneath the surface"
A feeling of being trapped....and in Stephen King's the Mist where secrets of the community come out is good, too.
I believe that the eerie 'look' to the Outer Limits comes from the fact that the episodes were produced in the old 'film noir' style...black and white... like the sci-fi flicks of the 1950's. And then, there is that other-worldly music score... atmospheric and ominous ! One of my favorite shows from the mid-60s!
I forgoten how spooky this episode is. The Fog and the strange Sounds. I know Stephen King is a fan of Outer Limits. I wonder if this episode is a inspiration for his Story the Mist.
Where is part one?

You know, I love this series-and as the years go by, the "special effects" get cheesier, but the story/plot doesn't-

This story reminds me of Silent Hill how it is really foggy and the city is pretty much cut off, or at least leads to an unknown.
