One Step Beyond (TV-1960) HOUSE OF THE DEAD S2E37

Mind-bending TV series hosted by John Newland, your guide to the unknown! Based on true, supernatural events that defy scientific explanation, this show appeals to fans of The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits.
HOUSE OF THE DEAD: A British army officer stationed in Hong Kong frantically searches for his missing wife before his scheduled return to the US. In desperation he seeks the help of an old Chinese man who writes a cryptic message on paper and tells him to look for his wife in the "House of the Dead."

[@Pro1er]

The tour guide is James Hong who has had a ton of roles in TV and movies. As of this writing he is still alive and 90 years old.

Oh I love James Hong!! This was such a treat! God bless you James Hong!!

I love 60s and 70s and 50s tv show thank you very much take care.

Holy crap! The tour guide was the maitre d in an episode of Seinfeld. LOL! I was expecting him to say "Oh, be about five, ten minutes."

[@dianepriore9576]

Excellent !!!! Costanza gets screwed Again! Every single episode was amazing ; after all these yrs (?) I laugh n I laugh.... N then I laugh again

[@jamesyates1432]

He just got honored last year (I think) . Well deserved. He has been in one billion movies and TV shows.

[@SunflowerSunflower101]

I love when a show is so unpredictable, you have to go back & watch some of it again to understand. I love when I cannot guess the outcome. This was one of those times. So refreshing - to NOT be able to guess the plot or ending!

[@rivkabornstein]

but why was she in the house of the dead in the first place?

[@russellsantangelo1]

I never saw this episode before and had to look at it a couple of times before I realized the rickshaw driver was the dying man.

[@jackiekidwell5004]

I didn't think this episode would end happily. ☹️☹️ So glad it did !! 😃😃☺️☺️

[@brocktoon8]

I've been enjoying these over the past few weeks. I love the host. Wonderful show!

[@deadalready7467]

What a great, great episode. Cohesive plot, character development, strong actors, setting, and got to love the B&W all wrapped up in 25 minutes. Wow, that’s talent, top to bottom. Thank you for sharing 🙏. Many Blessings 🙏

[@deborahleone4351]

A-MEN! 🕊❤️🙏💜✝️✡️🙋‍♀️🌹 I never watch any TV anymore except the News once in a while. Such wonderful stories, acting, makes me laugh, makes me cry.....What more can one ask for? 😘

[@ivorbiggun710]

It's particularly pleasing that John Newland, when talking about a British Lieutenant, pronounces lieutenant in the English manner.

[@eyecomeinpeace2707]

Yes I've noticed that too. The Brits and all countries of the British Commonwealth pronounce the word as "leftenant" Here in Canada, most of us like to pronounce it the American way without the "F", but the older die-hard generation are still loyal to the Crown.

[@ppena4128]

John Newland was born in Cincinnatti, Ohio. Just sayin'

[@dawnwheeler2649]

James Hong is the quintessential actor for all Asian roles in TV and movie and does comedy very well. He was in Big Trouble in Little China, Balls of steel (hysterical), and so many others. Love him!!💜

The ricksha driver performed his last duty. Before I was born about 7 years earlier my father was a Lt. In neigboring Korea during the war and met a beautiful young woman for whom he wanted to marry but as fate would have it she felt drawn to do something that ended up with my father returning to america alone. He returned with not just a broken heart but as a young executive officer promoted from infantry platoon leader was awarded every medal of heroism for his duties from 4 purple hearts, 4 bronze stars for valor, silver stars , distinguished service crosses and even was put in for the Medal of Honor twice by officers within his unit and his battalion commander LTC Don Carlos Faith Jr. who died after writing a declaration statement of his heroics. In lieu of being the solo man to receive the highest award it was confered to the commander unanimously as the colonels life ended there. My dad didnt live long after he returned as the wounds he encountered were too numerous and turned to cancer throughout his body. Perhaps the woman saw that in her premonition or not his life too ended from his selfless desire to end the threat of communism as he made one last trip to Vietnam after going to Cuba during the missle crisis. No other soldier during the wsrs in asia loved the military as much as he did, and no soldier ever faught harder or was decorated more except a man who entered the military a year before him a junior officer named Maj. Audie Murphy.

There is no true non-existence because we never really die. Our consciousnesses continues on eternally.

[@melmazing3993]

Not disagreeing with this... But I do wonder if our consciousness is eternal, why our awareness begins and ends over with each lifetime.

[@fionabuchanan7787]

@@melmazing3993 I've been told it is so we can learn. If we all knew for certain exactly what we are, that we are eternal, and that there are no wrong choices or acts (as these also help us learn) then we wouldn't have a true earthly experience. Once we die, all our memories and knowledge gathered from an eternity of incarnations and existence are returned. Then we can choose what our next experience will be.

[@garymckee8857]

Remote viewing, definitely.

[@Tconcept]

The British officer sounds American and the Asian woman sounds and looks French.

[@originalkingalpha5116]

Neither of them are what they appear. The woman Laya Raki was half German (father) and her mother was Indonesian from Java. She died not too long ago actually in 2018 at the golden age of 91!

@@geraldinekearney542 Americans did not have a presence in Hong Kong. The British military were stationed there.

[@RSEFX]

He could have been a last minute replacement and just couldn't affect a British accent. On very low budget productions, that is not at all unknown. In the OUTER LIMITS episode THE PREMONITION, Don Gordon was suddenly not available for the lead at the last moment, so Dewey Martin was brought in and had to learn his lines minutes before camera. I was on a much bigger film in which this happened. OR maybe Geraldine Kearney's scenario, below?
