Night Gallery Audience Reviews

Chatverock Takes itself way too seriously

Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

AaronCapenBanner This has often been considered a poor cousin to Rod Serling's other series "The Twilight Zone", and while it isn't in that league, it did present a number of standout segments like 'The Caterpillar', 'A Question Of Fear', 'The Devil Is Not Mocked', and my favorite 'Silent Snow, Secret Snow'.Rod would present each segment/episode by introducing a painting representing the basic story to be shown, and these paintings were usually quite chilling(like 'Pickman's Model'). There were some duds of course, mostly the comedic skits that were quite silly and pointless, though creator Jack Laird was said to be fond of them; season Two was the best of the three(take a bow Gerald Sanford!) Worth viewing, even if Mr. Serling wasn't as proud of it as he should have been...

DKosty123 Not every episode of Rod Sterling's Night Gallery is great, but a lot of them produce surprises. While Sterling himself serves as a haunting host taking us on an episodic tour through an extensive art museum, we are often stopping to gasp at photos whose texture varied with the artist. Sterling's catch phrase "Picture if you will..." fits this format but I believe he first uttered that phrase on Twilight Zone.Though Rod is the host here, a lot of the work on this series is from others. Sterling is used as the magnet to draw viewers. Most of the work is horror but there are a few comedy blackouts here too. Some of these were mixed into NBC's Mystery Movie format, and the lengths vary from the 90 minutes of those, to one hour shows to even some 30 minute galleries in the final season.NBC had a habit in this era of attracting top talent to these types of series and getting them to show off that talent. While there are a few episodes I would not recommend, most of this series presents good viewing. On Halloween night, the image of Rod Sterling in front of a painting introducing us to it will always seem fitting to the Halloween spirit in my mind.

gothick42 This is for the person who inquired about a cannibalism story involving Voodoo and a Hawaiian luau. This was not an episode of Night Gallery; it was one of the stories in the Amicus movie Tales that Witness Madness, which came out around the same time as Night Gallery was on (early Seventies). The Voodoo/cannibalism episode starred Kim Novak as the mother and Mary Tam (the first Romana on Dr. Who) as her daughter. The episode seemed to have been filmed missing the climactic twist ending. To put it mildly, the whole thing seemed to be a mistake. Still, it's fun to watch Kim Novak essaying an affected performance style that makes one wonder whether she was directed to play the role as a retired female drag queen!

lumbergh Can anybody help me with this one please? I tried googling this and come up with nothing. It may have been an episode of Night Gallery because I remember seeing it late at night when I was a kid. It still haunts me today and I want to know if I was dreaming the whole thing. It was an episode where a woman has a lover and her daughter falls for him and the daughter and him go to a motel to fool around. He ends up killing the daughter and the next scene is a hawaiin type luau, but it is more of a ceremony. The boyfriend serves the mother some meat he has grilled, but it is actually pieces of the daughter. If you remember this or know where I can find info about it on the web please link it. Nobody seems to remember this but me. Thanks
