★★★★★ · what a thrill · quigs · 2009-03-30

When my computer was on "the fritz" (yiddish for broken) I watched some of the movie and tv files I downloaded. I watched this one and it was scary! I made the hairs on my neck stand on end. I really enjoyed this show as a kid. Then,it made me sleep under the covers at night. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Actually, John directed a lot of TV and, in the trade, was better known as a director than as an actor (which he doubles as in this episode) or as a "host". Ken also plays a character named "Jacob" in the episode "Pigeons from Hell" which was based on a short story by Robert E. Howard, creator of Conan the Barbarian, King Kull, Bran Mak Morn, and many other well-loved characters.
