Episode 3: Squeeze (Has Doug Hutchison ever not been creepy as hell?)
Daniel and I discuss "Squeeze," which is the third episode of the series - eschewing the mythology for a more standard "monster of the week" formula and, as such, it functions very well as a kind of self-contained 45-minute horror movie.
This is mainly due to the series' customary minimalist approach and a very creepy performance by Doug Hutchison as Victor Tooms.
Daniel and I get into all the aspects that make this episode work so well and we also discuss the key elements that have kept the series from really dating itself, at least at this point - allowing it to fall in like with the classic sci-fi series that inspired it, such as The Twilight Zone or The Outer Limits.
It's a good talk. Dig in.
