Trivia:
Through an oversight, Worldvision didn't renew the copyrights on most episodes of this series when they expired in the late 1980s, and they thus fell into the public domain. Since royalties didn't have to be paid to Worldvision, the result was a revival of the series on UHF and cable television and on VHS and DVD. Since well-worn syndication prints were and are typically used by those media, the results often leave something to be desired, quality-wise. moreQuotes:

This is a show that never gets the respect or attention of its' better known relatives, "The Twilight Zone" and "The Outer Limits".
The show has a simpler format than the above mentioned series but is, or as a result of, able to maintain an air of "hey it could happen" throughout each episode.
Most of the performances are well done by the various actors, with only some being ham fisted.
Newland's performance as the convert host also enhances the production as does the haunting music.
