I rate this episode ★★★★★ for EXCELLENT. Fielden Farrington's story was so good, it was like a cross between THE TWILIGHT ZONE and THE X-FILES. A terrific fantasy-mystery that defines the CBSRMT series. The sound effects of the car engine, the UFO soaring, howling wind, crickets, footsteps, doorbells, tableware clinking, serving trays, jail bars, citizens murmuring, the gavel, and the body thud were very supportive in this Sci-Fi tale. That and the music with its tunes of suspense and drama filled in every scene. In our Host's Prologue, E.G. Marshall starts the show off by saying, "In charge of the bizarre. Keeper of the grotesque. Collector of the fantastic." Now THAT is a great intro! In ACT-1, he brings us into the story where it begins on a highway in New Hampshire and later discover improbable & dangerous happenings. In ACT-2, he explains the speculations on UFOs. Then in ACT-3, he points out who is really controlling the town of Colony other than humans. In his Epilogue, E.G. Marshall gives us the climax & resolution. Splendid narrations our Host gave us. And a splendid cast we had: Tony Roberts (as Michael Duncan), Morgan Fairchild (as Mary Duncan), Francis Sternhagen (as Mae Norton), Jackson Beck (as Sheriff Thad Marcus), and Guy Sorel (as Mayor Arnie Stebbins). Both Tony Roberts & Morgan Fairchild nicely played a married couple. Both Jackson Beck & Guy Sorel did very well as the semi-villians. And Francis Sternhagen did a magnificent job, especially her monologue in ACT-2 about the history of the Colony. This is another episode that deserves recognition. Until next time…pleasant dreams. =^D
