Personal Quote:
[on his last film,
The Power (1968), produced by
George Pal] The personal friction between MGM and George Pal--the hatreds between them, you just wouldn't believe!--were allowed to operate on that film's economy. It wasn't released with any fanfare. It was grudgingly allowed to escape, with everyone at MGM hoping it would flop, because they were trying to get rid of Pal.
Trivia:
In the 1960s Haskin directed several episodes of
The Outer Limits (1963) science-fiction series, including
The Outer Limits: Demon with a Glass Hand (1964), a favorite among the show's fans, written by
Harlan Ellison. The long-awaited sequel, "Demon on the Run", was scheduled to have been shown on the television series,
Babylon 5 (1993), sometime in 1997 or 1998, but sadly it was never filmed.
Trademark:
Creative camera shots that flows with the characters reacting to the action of the scene.
