"The Girl with the Hungry Eyes" was the second adaptation of Fritz Leiber's work on Night Gallery.
In "The Girl with the Hungry Eyes", "she created that image," says Pettet. "And because of Night Gallery she was able to play that 'ethereal' thing." "All the clothes that they had were made in England by two growing, hip fashion designers".
Reworking Leiber's classic short, screenwriter Robert Malcolm Young gave the characters a fuller dimension and heightened the story's erotic undercurrents.
