Anyone remember this creepy themed tv show from Hammer films?
Journey to the Unknown is a British anthology television series produced by Hammer Film Productions and 20th Century Fox Television and executive produced by Joan Harrison and Norman Lloyd which aired on ABC from September 26, 1968 to January 30, 1969.
Format
The series had a fantasy, science fiction and supernatural theme very similar to the American television series The Twilight Zone and dealt with normal people in everyday situations that found themselves having to experience something a bit out of the normal. It featured both British and American actors: American actors included George Maharis, Vera Miles, Barbara Bel Geddes, Patty Duke, Carol Lynley, Joseph Cotten, Stefanie Powers and Brandon deWilde, along with familiar British actors such as Dennis Waterman, Jane Asher, Kay Walsh, Roddy McDowall, Nanette Newman, Ann Bell and Tom Adams. A total of seventeen episodes were produced.[1] Directors of the episodes included Roy Ward Baker, Alan Gibson, Robert Stevens, Don Chaffey and Michael Lindsay-Hogg.
In America, eight episodes from the series were broadcast as four made-for-television films consisting of twinned episodes along with new segment introduction footage provided by actors Patrick McGoohan, Sebastian Cabot and Joan Crawford serving as hosts:
