BEWARE OF THE QUEEN!
30 April 2024
Really weird story that was outlined by Charles Beaumont, though finished by Jerry Sohl, due to the fact that Beaumont was quite ill. Sohl also wrote for Alfred Hitchcock's tv show, without too much surprise. This one has that feel, and will definitely keep your attention.

Beautiful Anne Blyth plays one of the greatest movie stars of all time -- who has literally found the fountain of youth. You have to see this one all the way through it's that bizarre, and so well acted.

Blyth, best known for her Oscar nominated performance as Joan Crawford's daughter in MILDRED PIERCE, shines in this role. A one of a kind performance.

Good support from popular actor Lee Philips as Jordy and veteran Celia Lovsky (as Viola) in one of those mystery lady roles she plays so well. Lovsky was married to actor Peter Lorre, who passed around the time this episode was filmed. Good trivia question.

10 Stars for originality. SEASON 5 EPISODE 23 remastered.
