31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 11: CURTAIN CALL 1951 (MILL CREEK)

More "Lights Out" fun, this time starring Otto Kruger.

Kruger stars as Carlton Dane, a famous actor coming out of retirement after the death of his wife which everyone believes was a suicide. He is coming out of retirement because his beautiful daughter is becoming an actress as well.

The act in a play together and she is a major success. Dane seems to be having trouble dealing with her sudden fame. This causes problems that only get worse until the ironic, but not surprising ending.

This is not too bad of an episode and I have always enjoyed the work of Kruger. This is included along with the other television episodes I have been writing about over the past few days on a disc set entitled "Monster Movie Mix" but as all the others, it isn't a monster movie, but it was good to see this episode again.
