- AnecdotesAt one point, William Shatner is seen alone, peering through an airplane window into the night. The shot recreates many similar scenes from Shatner's manic performance in the legendary Nightmare at 20,000 Feet (1963) of the original Twilight Zone services.

Memoriable TV Horror Flick
What do you get when you combine an airline, a slew of TV stars (including Captain Kirk himself!), and ancient, cursed Druid temple foundations all in one film? 1973's "The Horror at 37,000 Feet"! Starring the likes of Chuck Connors, William Shatner, Buddy Ebsen, Tammy Grimes, Frances Nuyen, Jane Merrow, Lynn Loring, Paul Winfield and Roy Thinnes, it's a wonderful mash up of the supernatural and 70's airline flicks. When architect Roy Thinnes transfers the remains of an abbey long owned by his wife's family, he unknowingly angers the old druid gods who have been attached to the old abbey before Christianity. Faced with impending disaster if the old gods are not appeased or defeated, the passengers and crew scramble to find a way out before everyone descends into a mob and gives the gods what they want: the sacrifice of the architect's wife Jane Merrow! Enter hard drinking, superstition mocking defrocked ex-priest William Shatner (Even writing that sentence makes laugh uncontrollably)! Can the former priest sum up his faith and courage or will everything go down in flames?
I absolutely love this movie due to, if for nothing else, just the creativity of it. I mean, for crying out loud, you have an ancient cursed Druid temple being transferred to the states on an airliner by an arrogant, rich architect and William Shatner as a wise cracking, drunk, former priest as the hero to save them. That's more creative than 90% of the films that get made today! But as silly and hokey as the plot line sounds, everyone here gives their best foot forward, from Shatner to Thinnes. Director David Lowell Rich keeps the direction tight and never allows the story to get dull, and the writing is superb with a little message about faith and hope in the darkest of times. This is a type of movie that proves you don't need elaborate special effects or gore to make a good horror flick; sometimes good acting, a decent story, and a little message are all you need, a lesson that has unfortunately been lost on Hollywood these days! If you are in the mood for a creative little horror film from back in the day, I recommend "The Horror at 37,000 Feet" as a good way to spend your time.
P.S. It's on youtube.
