SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Brightlyme i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Paul Evans I'm almost sad to have completed the series, but all I can say is wow. Thriller deserves its cult status, the best episodes are incredible, even the episodes I like least are still good. It's been fascinating reading the many reviews, and seeing the different opinions, one thing that we all seem to have in common is we all love a thriller, which by definition has a crime and a degree of excitement, the supernatural episodes are probably the bottom of the pile for me, Nurse will make it better, and a place to die for example, they're by no means bad, just lacking the true 'thriller' core. The standout episode has to be A Coffin for the Bride, which is everything a thriller should be, plus it features a standout performance from Helen Mirren. Series Three generally is excellent, Come Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are is another gem from it. Another favourite is Series Five's 'If It's a Man, Hang Up.' So many classics to chose from. It is quite amusing watching some of the U.S. titles, naturally made in the U.S they look so at odds, a shame they weren't made at the same time. That's probably the only quibble I can find from a fantastic series, viewers at the time must have loved it, those wonderful opening credits, memorable music, and of course fantastic stories.They simply don't make shows like this anymore. 10/10

kris-gray The quality of writing and acting varies but never falls below good. If you can cope with the excessive amount of Americans that populate every episode (They were needed at that time before the Americans would buy into anything British) then you will enjoy the series. It's fun to pick out some future stars in sometimes very small parts, too many to list but I will mention a young Robert Lindsay who makes a brief appearance as a policeman.The complete series is available as a DVD box set which is well worth buying but you should avoid the US titles extras that are dreadful so say the least, If you want a more in-depth review of each episode check out the rest of the IMDb page It's difficult to rate the entire series as anything out of ten but I generally feel that on an average it's the seven I have applied, some as low as 5 with the odd one as a 10. If you remember the series from the original broadcast you wont be disappointed

silverclover-1 At last Brian Clemens' wonderful 1970s anthology series has been released in it's entirety in 16 disk Mega DVD set in the UK. This is a Region 2 release and also contains a number of tantalising extras43 unrelated - but remarkably consistent - hour long thrillers from the fertile mind of Mr Clemens stand testament to the claustrophobic feel of studio taped television drama where the skill of the actor basically decides the pace of the piece in conjunction with the skill of the director using a multi camera set-up (an art probably destined to disappear altogether in another generation).So many themes, so what to recommend? Well there is hardly a "dud" in there. One "K is for Killing" is rather incongruously a comedy and should really be treated as separate to the main mood of the remaining stories, which take in supernatural tales (especially in the first series), espionage stories and all variants of general crime from psychopathic scheming to killers on the run. It's is hard to isolate the "cream of the cream", the general standard being very high - however there are some that are classics from first viewing and remain forever so ... to my mind these comprise the following stories: (in chronological order) The Colour Of Blood, The Eyes Have It, I'm The Girl He Wants To Kill, Death To Sister Mary, In The Steps Of A Deadman, Come Out, Come Out Wherever You Are, Nurse Will Make It Better, A Killer In Every Corner, Where The Action Is, The Double Kill, The Crazy Kill and The Next Voice You See

Lang Skrimshire I've been watching the DVDs recently. I have found the series enjoyable but not exactly thrilling. The acting is very stilted and the dialogue surely would have been dated at the time of broadcast. It's nice to see a few faces from the past and the acting by the more recognizable few seems to be of a better caliber than a lot of the rest of the cast.It seems like the concept of red herrings is far too complex a plot device for the early seventies as every part of the action is spelled out for the audience and most of the episodes have narrative laid on thick by the characters 'who'd have thought a dynamic doctor from the city and his American bride from Connecticut would be setting up home in the English countryside?' just in case you can't figure out the plot.The sets are pretty good, very large, but typically unstable like that of Acorn Antiques fame. All in all it's pretty watchable but not scary.
