Thanks, Deluge. The Meriweather File was offbeat even for Thriller. I enjoy The Watcher due mostly to Martin Gabel's riveting performance, his voice, his mannerisms. The writing wasn't great, nor was the story original, but the presentation was good. The one with Nehemiah Persoff chasing the child killer was also well done if not as well written as it might have been.
Dialogues With Death has grown on me over the years, with the first episode quite chilling, the second, comical and yet also somehow frightening. Another one featuring more than one story, Trio For Terror, kinds of shoots its bolt with the best story, which comes first. I especially like the use of similar props, with their suggestions of diabolism, what appear to be signs of the zodiac, and best of all Terrence De Marney and his game cock . They're familiar and exquisitely designed, were used in Dark Legacy and The Weird Tailor as well.
