Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Hmmm, I love the Twighlight Zone. Other great episodes were: Eye of the beholder - where the beautiful woman is seen as hidious. Night Call - where the old lady is able to talk to her dead husband (and the phone line leads to his grave) A Stop at Willoughby is awesome too. If you like Twighlight Zone, Night Gallery and Tales from the Crypt (I love all three), be sure to check out the little mentioned Disney film "Something Wicked This Way Comes" inc. a demon who later plays a loving father governor in another DIsney film series ;-) Also, I recommend the work of Neil Gaiman (though be warned, some of it is sick and perverted), but overall very cool.

(For you Doctor Who fans, Pryce played The Master to Rowan Atkinson's Doctor in 1999's Comic Relief spoof "The Curse of Fatal Death")

Wasn't there a Star Trek scene with Chekov having some earwig-type thing go into his ear?
