UNCUT - The Outer Limits (60s) S1E14 - The Zanti Misfits

You guys will love "The Sixth Finger" episode.

There are villains, but the best villains are the ones that talk you to death. I would like to share a link to my favorite villain rant from the Outer Limits, a threat beautifully delivered with the power of the spoken word: https://youtu.be/5PfnCNetJc8?si=V7gqKQD5uGTe-lsF

All of Science Fiction is an exploration of us, to be human.

The Outer Limits always raised interesting questions. What would Earth do if aliens wanted to dump their unwanted on our planet? Would we agree to it? Could we stop them if we disagree with their plan? For 1963, The Outer Limits showed interesting answers, but there were any number of alternate answers. It was fun to speculate with family and friends on questions posed by The Outer Limits. The low tech world of the TV show matched the low tech times of the 1960's. It all adds a kind of creepy feel to each episode.

I got 5 emails about this.

Yes, that's Vasquez Rocks

Bruce Dern and Olive Deering hamming it up is legendary IMO - hope TA enjoys

Ooh, this has peaked my interest. "The uploader has not made this video available in your country" Well, shit...

The Outer Limits episodes are kind of all over the place. Many of them are scary/horror/creature feature. Others are more high-level, like Demon with a Glass Hand, which had Harlan Ellison as the writer. If you continue to watch these, I would recommend Soldier, the other episode Ellison wrote.

The Outer Limits typically used a 'teaser' at the beginning of each episode before the title and opening credits. It took awhile for viewers to catch on (like yourselves).

Been waiting for this to drop. I'm very curious as to what your reactions will be.

Saw this when I was a child on a road to trip. Stayed the night in a motel. It was probably 1980. I was like What. The. Eff.
