Usually The Outer Limits often offers a science fiction subject, always in a easy language that allowed to the audience a total understanding what it refers, instead "Production and Decay of Strange Particle" the writers developed a hard tech-jargon that puzzle over the viewers in such unusual lines, including isotope, plasma, anti-matter, subatomic, quantum physics and so on, looks like a scientist exposing his master's degree with those mid-blogging language.
All start at high advanced complex of nuclear reactor that allows all kind of experiments on nuclear field spearheaded by nuclear physics Dr. Marshall (George Macready) where he got a skilled scientist staff in research, the plot is fuzzy about the source of the material on nuclear fission inside the reactor, it somehow starts a chain reaction if it reaches at high heat could be explode all complex, even such reactor having bars to equalize the temperature.
Turn out that the scientists even using radiation suit with mechanical hands dealing with the matter inside the reactor becomes them into a energy bodies, meanwhile Dr. Marshall tries out find a way to overturn the growing process aiming for to save the complex about to explode where will affect the place nearby at least within a mile radius.
This episode somewhat didn't gets fire properly, even with a fine casting especially Leonard Nimoy on small role, they had to use a massive stock footage to fill out some sequences, overrall an average presentation.
Thanks for reading.
