This is one of the first episodes I ever taped. Very dramatic and creepy. In a recent review, I mentioned that a central character may have been the most vilest ever. In this episode-- we are introduced to possibly the most deranged and pathetic. Sid Prout isn't exactly a villian, he's as much a victim as any of the characters. He's survived a truly horrific childhood and is simply a lonely, friendless man trying to have some contact with the human race. It's hard not to feel some sympathy for him. Earl Hammond does an incredible job of bringing this "creepy" character to life. Earl Hammond was one of RMT's true treasures -- an amazing range.
Teri Keane is great in this one to. Her character is placed in "Sheer Terror" and is brave, resourceful, and survives with flying colors.
This is an interesting commentary on daytime soap operas, which most of the RMT cast members were veterans of.........
I like the twist at the end-- with the dog really being her "guardian angel"............
Until next time.............

You gave away the ending before I could even listen! Waaaah. I'll play it anyhow. But kinda takes away the "mystery" part of Mystery Theater...

I think these comments for the shows are intended to be read after we listen to the show and post our opinions on the episodes. So... "spoilers" are not uncommon. Sometimes I'm glad they're posted because they can offer insights into something I may have missed entirely, but I try not to "read ahead" too often. Enjoy the show and pleasant dreams.

Terri Keane is my favorite voice on Mystery Theater.I miss women/people who spoke normally without screaming or fake accents.
