clue who the killer is.
Have they gotten away with murder?

#TheOuterLimits TV 5.11 cont'd.
Has an authentic London feel? This can't be made in Canada surely? It really was made in the UK according to IMDB or was it? Unclear.

Despite this pitiful premise this ep is a lot better than it has any rights to be.
Excellent cast too led by David Warner.

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #5.11 "Ripper" (07-May-00).
What if Jack the Ripper was innocent as the murderer is an alien. Ah well. Awful premise.

At least the London recreation wasn't the usual US TV effort. It was done well, ie not OTT cliche.

Another Jack the Ripper ep for @holgerhaase.bsky.social?

#TheOuterLimits TV 5.10 cont'd.
Fuck me but this ep make so many bad decisions in the last quarter. What a mess it ended up as ultimately.
This ep is not the son of God as this ep is a naughty boy.

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #5.10 "The Shroud" (30-Apr-99).
This ep should be good and unique. A scientific undertaking to create the second coming. But then there's terrible decisions throughout that drag it into mediocre at best.
The telekinesis is dumb, lots of ADR and the spycam footage was shit.

#TheOuterLimits TV 5.09 cont'd.
The cast in this is so good: Jane Adams, Peter Outerbridge, Jill Teed, Brent Stait, April Telek, Bruce Harwood, Garwin Sanford.
It is a grotesque black comedy that shakes off the bog standard TOL limitations and what results is a no holds barred engaging experience.

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #5.09 "What Will the Neighbors Think" (23-Apr-99).
Let's take a moment to scoff at IMDB ratings. From the off this ep is easily superior to the typical TOL as both drama, suspense and TV yet the IMDB cretins rate it miles below other eps.

IMDB Ratings: the domain of morons.

#TheOuterLimits Novella 10 cont'd.
As these novellas go I quite enjoyed this one. It wasn't anywhere near as metatextual as it might have been and it definitely seemed that it would be so in its description. Yet it wasn't as ploddy as it could've been in the absence of the expected meta hi-jinx.

#TheOuterLimits Novella #10 "Alien Invasion from Hollyweird" (15-Apr-99).
Once more into the John Peel verse. On the set of a sci-fi movie real aliens are being used. Yet nobody employed on the movie seems to have noticed.

Review: soon.

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #7.08 "Blank Slate" (02-Apr-99).
Well if it ain't Dale Midkiff from my #TimeTrax walkthrough! He's never gonna be my favourite actor but he did a good job here of a man getting his memory back in increments.
Good ep but was the most Vancouvery looking ep ever, yet wasn't dull!

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #7.07 "The Human Operators" (12-Mar-99).
Strong ep which is clearly from another source. Here a Harlan Ellison & A.E. Van Vogt story in "The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction" (Jan-71).

It's not too epic or moving just a good ep worked well.

#TheOuterLimits TV 7.06 cont'd.
Can tell this is a good ep as the IMBD reviewers gave it a low score. IMDB review section is a Hellscape.
It's got strong sci-fi, great characters and excellent direction and dialog.
The end veers into being too sympathetic and would be better if it stayed ambiguous?

#TheOuterLimits TV ep #7.06 "Joyride" (26-Feb-99).
Cliff Robertson who was in the very first TOL returns and the date of the original space flight is this is 16-Sep-63 which was the transmission date of that very first ep.
Nice job so thankfully it's another good ep. Maybe there's hope for S7.

Remembering Adam West, born September 19, 1928 and passed away June 9, 2017.
