OVERLOOKED TELEVISION: NBC MATINEE THEATER'S "DARK OF THE MOON"

From 1957, a creepy little Southern gothic featuring Tom Tryon (MOON PILOT, THE CARDINAL, Disney's Texas John Slaughter; also the best-selling author of Harvest Home and The Other) and Gloria Talbott (THE CYCLOPS, I MARRIED A MONSTER FROM OUTER SPACE).

Directed by Albert McCleery, who was active in television in the 50s, and written by William Berney and Howland Richardson, who had co-written earlier television versions of this play, "Dark of the Moon" provided a lush and unusual afternoon fare for a cool December afternoon.

Enjoy.
