Two Excellent Episodes Save A Very Poor Episode
|
| On volume 42, there are only two enjoyable stories. One takes us into the life of would-be writer Julius(Jack Weston), who manages to summon the ghost of Shakespeare. When I first read the review on the back of the volume, I thought this was going to be a scary episode, but was instead a very funny, very witty comedy! In the supporting cast are John Williams as Shakespeare, John McGiver as the arrogant(and funny) sponsor and Burt Reynolds as a Marlon Brando-like actor. That's because he's parodying Marlon Brando... and he does a terrific job of it. Next up to bat is the freaky "The Fear", about a State Trooper(Mark Richman) and a woman(Hazel Court) who find signs of an extraterrestrial on the woman's property. I liked Mark's performance the best, but Hazel also shines in her role. The twist is very... twist-y, so I won't give it away! The final episode, "The Bewitchin' Pool" is terrible, more suited to a show like Barney! Like a skit for Barney! The worst part about this is they used someone else's voice for Mary Badham, June Foray, who has a voice like a doll(no wonder she voiced Chatty Cathy). If they had ended Zone with "The Fear" instead of this, the series could've lived, but they had to end it with a kiddie story, which, obviously, many viewers didn't enjoy. Rod, why didn't you end it with "The Fear"? Why????? |
