Monday, May 18 - Thriller: The Premature Burial

Thriller: Season 2, Episode 3 The Premature Burial (2 Oct. 1961)

Sydney Blackmer stars as Edward Stapleton, a wealthy man who has a morbid fear of being buried alive, and after a near-fatal close call with this dreadful fate, goes to great lengths to ensure that premature burial will not happen again, since he is cataleptic. His fiancée Victorine (played by Patricia Medina) plots to kill him with her young lover Julian (played by Scott Marlowe) on their honeymoon, but the carefully prepared plan does not go as they expect. Boris Karloff and William Gordon costar as Doctor friends of Edward's who seek to protect him.
