Marsha looks like a vintage Barbie doll!

[@zzzbbbooo]

Yes, you're right, she really does!

​@@zzzbbbooothat's Anne Francis and she was always hot looking like that back then

[@BeelySalasBlair-uy5wn]

Fr 🪞

[@AndrewMacLaine]

That was the point! She knew the assignment to hint at her true form, and the fact that she looked and carried her body like a fashion doll is a testament to her skill!

[@melissacooper8724]

The part where Marsha was locked inside the store after closing hits home to me because that happened to me in a Wal-Mart!

[@cynthiamckenzie9986]

Wth, you need to elaborate!

[@EphemeralProductions]

Holy crap! What a story THAT sounds like. We need to hear it! lol

[@SamuelBlack84]

Did you hear voices calling your name from the dolls in the shadows?

[@melissacooper8724]

@SamuelBlack84 The only voice I heard was the assistant manager who came back because I set off the burglar alarm! And no, I didn't get in trouble. He mostly asked if I was OK. Then when the patrol car drove up because my dad called 911 we just told the police what happened.

[@SamuelBlack84]

@@melissacooper8724 The idea of being locked inside somewhere had always frightened me To lose one's freedom even just for a little while

[@alfreddreamerphotocomics4880]

The part when she's trying to return the ring, and sees the sales lady with her back turned, and she yells over to her. "Miss!" "Miss!" And someone turns the sales lady around and she's a mannequin, freaked me the hell out when I was a kid. That zoom close up the camera does to the mannequin's face, and that zoom close up to the main character lady's face, scared me to death! I use to sometimes watch The Twilight Zone at home in the dark by myself in the whole house as a kid. You can't imagine how scary it was as a kid to have to turn out all the lights in a large house, before I go to bed, and go to sleep, after watching The Twilight Zone late at night. My heart is racing just recalling it now.

[@cdst8888]

The music and her reaction sells it too I have seen this episode many times and still get the chills.

[@basilmarasco1975]

Watching the Twilight Zone all alone in the dark? Wow! Bad move!

1960

[@cordeliachase601]

Tr L That was like half a season. The first few episodes aired in 1959.

[@afridgetoofar1818]

Just a small handful of episodes were aired in 1959. The majority of season One was aired in Spring & Summer of 1960.

[@ideamaker]

Maybe it was because she ended up with a fiancé, that she forgot she was a mannequin, she could've been having such a great time, that she didn't wanted to go back. And perhaps this driving need to purchase, "The Thimble", was some kind of fail safe, a pre-programmed subconscious command, forcing her to return to the store.

[@basilmarasco1975]

That's actually a pretty good explanation, especially the part about being destined to return to the store.

[@Nicole-em9yo]

According to TV tropes, there’s a rather sad explanation in the script for the thimble. Marsha was taken in by a kind, old woman who died of an infection after pricking her finger on a sewing needle. Because Marsha doesn’t understand the concept of death, she bought her a thimble as a solution.

[@SamuelBlack84]

I'd love to see this episode adapted into a tv series of its own and explore the secret society of mannequins

[@EphemeralProductions]

Yep that’s how it appears.

[@ericmaine]

@@Nicole-em9yo That would totally explain why she's buying a thimble (or anything for anyone). I kept asking myself "do mannequins have mothers? Was Marcia human at one time?"

[@2574mcu]

The end where the lady turns back into a mannequin scared the heck out of my niece when she was little. She could not go into the department stores clothes section without screaming.

[@joansmith6092]

Maybe your niece saw it the way I used to see it, when I was a kid. I didn't understand the ending in the 1960s, I thought the other mannequins forced Marsha to be a mannequin, and she's stuck in that unmovable body, FOREVER!

Twilight Zone episode "THE AFTER HOURS" is my all time favorite, the late great actress ANNE FRANCES has the same BD as me 9/16 but she was born 30yrs b4 me lol 🤣🎞️🎥

[@leobrussel9471]

I had a job for many years working with a large group of people. Whenever one of them would be going off on a vacation and we would all at the end of the workday yell out "have a great time. See you in a couple of weeks" or some such thing, I would think of this episode. And how we all, during that vacation, tend to forget our work selves and how we all wait for our turn.

boots boogas?

[@EphemeralProductions]

It made me laugh!! Because of how it was timed with her turning around! lol

[@SnagTheRabbit]

I think this is one of the best episodes, also because it's so well acted. The acting is so unsettling, especially from the actress who plays the mannequin. Something is so off about her, but you can't tell what. "Suit yourself, it's none of my buisness!" the way she delivers that line is so good.

[@nina1522]

Anne Francis was so pretty.

[@greglong1432]

Ann was a real cutie. Blonde baby face.

[@Ilovegrunge123]

The episode Deaths-Head Revisited rings true today the closing quote was They must remain standing because they are a monument to a moment in time when some men decided to turn the Earth into a graveyard. Into it they shoveled all of their reason, their logic, their knowledge, but worst of all, their conscience. It was about a former Nazi soldier who was haunted by ghost in a concentration camp. The reason I put it rings true today is because of people wanting to remove things because it might offend someone.

As much as I love this episode, there are some interesting plot holes. How does a woman with no identity get a job and a place to live for a month? (Though perhaps they are given an identity on their way out.) Later in the episode she says the thimble is for her mother, who was the woman she thought was her mother? ((Maybe the display designer for the store?)

[@Kasey_888]

They are given a "story" before they go about living their lives for a short period of time. Its an analogy for human beings not remembering who they are and where they came from. And how until the very end we fight to hold onto an idea of who we *think we are. No plot holes at all...

[@terencebuie7463]

And that's how tv and movies carry on with stuff missing and not figure out you add to the plot but back than there wasn't a team of writers too often. Rod could made part.two This or turned it to a seperate movie. I would remake it or continued it

[@slayerette86m]

@@Kasey_888 It's so interesting how people read this episode. There's no consistent themes that locks an interpretation. For me, it's about the lives of people you pass on the street, a world full of faces that we know nothing about.

It's not a plot hole. This is just a story, a parable. Stories function all types of ways.

Yessir, and it still captivates me after all these years. Outstanding!

[@MVR326]

And I love how professional the sales lady is even on a floor with nothing going on..

[@Kazyman]

lol....yep, and I love, (Marsha White): "Well you'll forgive me but that's really none of your business." (Saleswomen can't help but laugh): Really!" (Surprised and at the same time amused, the saleswoman replies), "Alright Miss White, suit yourself. It's none of my business!" She knows Marsha would not be able to process the truth at that point in time and decides to let fate play its hand. Clever writing. For me, the flip side of this haunting, creepy scenario is that all of the mannequins are quite nice and not a one of them at all creepy. Too bad we humans cannot follow suit.

[@basilmarasco1975]

@@Kazyman The really telling moment is later, when the sales lady tells Marcia, "Think ... remember now?" And it is then striking as all the various mannequins, who are now in human form, one by one look at Marsha and give her a friendly, caring smile.
