The Outer Limits: The Galaxy Being (1963)
Season 1, Episode 1
7/10
Interesting but Tacky
1 January 2015
I'm just rewatching the original series. I have to say that while this episode has an interesting concept, the acting and the basic plot elements are lacking. The interaction among the characters is stiff and unbelievable. The wife is an insensitive stiff who refuses to listen to her husband, not even giving him a chance to explain himself or to involve him in what he is doing. Cliff Robertson has made an intergalactic connection where a being that is brought to him through waves he receives in a radio transmission station takes on a corporeal being when a silly dial is turned up by an idiot disc jockey. The thing begins to run around town, emitting some kind of death ray, while Cliff attends and awards ceremony in his honor. How they attempt to come to grips is amazingly stupid. Not a very good beginning to the series.
