Thriller

Season 2

Yes, I assure you my friends, Thriller returns for a second season of ghoulish tales of the macabre. Dropping the “It’s a Thriller” from the introduction, the show moves toward the supernatural (and then strangely back toward crime stories in the last stretch of episodes). Still, overall the show’s tone is more consistent than in the first season. The guest stars featured include Elizabeth Montgomery, John Carradine, Ursula Andress, Dick York, and George Kennedy. And Karloff gets in on the fun, starring in a couple of episodes himself. Some of the highlights include “What Beckoning Ghost?,” “The Premature Burial,” “La Strega,” “A Wig For Miss Devore,” and “The Incredible Doktor Markesan.” Although, as with any anthology series, there are a number of episodes that don’t work. While the show’s still struggling to find its identity, Season 2 of Thriller is full of mystery and delivers some frightful chills.
