Peter Falk plays a most unusual character....a self-created preacher who befriends folks and takes care of them and then...kills them! At the beginning of the show, you see him with an old lady....acting so kind and caring. But then he insists on dancing with her and he makes the lady dance and dance until she has a heart attack.
In the next scene, the dead woman's niece (Dina Merrill) arrives to take possession of the estate. And, not surprisingly, the nice and helpful preacher is there to assist her. You can't help but wonder how he plans on killing this much younger and healthier lady.
While this isn't a great episode and the twist really is non-existent, it is well done and SUPER-creepy. Falk's character is certainly memorable and awful...and it's worth seeing.
