I remember After Hours and how it scared me the first time I saw it. It's the one in which the mannequins get to come to life for a time every year in that department store. Anne Francis played the lead role.

Twilight Zone was a must watch for me as a kid. Rod wrote over 80 episodes of the Twilight Zone. The show featured a mix of horror, science-fiction, drama, comedy and superstition.
