Review of 'Way Out

'Way Out (1961)
8/10
A summer scare
4 November 2007
I don't recall how many episodes I saw of this fill-in horror anthology, but I tend to think of it as a summer show, so this may tell you which episodes I caught. The one episode that has stayed in my mind is about the man who cannot remove his Quasimodo makeup, and the magnificent makeup job was courtesy of the one and only Dick "The Exorcist" Smith (remember his one-shot magazine special published by the FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND folks? It cost under a buck at the time, and how I wish I had held onto it, along with all my FAMOUS MONSTER and CASTLE OF FRANKENSTEIN titles). WAY OUT was actually a notch above THE OUTER LIMITS although not as good as THE TWILIGHT ZONE. God, I love Roald Dahl, who served as host. Did you notice Larry "It's Alive" Cohen was involved in the scripting?
