Typical Alfred Hitchcock macabre, and with a supreme cast. This was one excellent story, guaranteed to keep you tuned in. As I have noted in the past, the half hour Hitchcock tv shows were in a class by themselves, however, every now and then there would be a dynamic one hour tale. This is one of them. The great Gary Merrill (ALL ABOUT EVE, THE HUMAN JUNGLE) also popular on tv at the time, plays a man suspected of burying his wife in his back yard. He claims his wife left him while a nosy neighbor saw the whole thing --kind of, sort of? In steps analytical sheriff Fess Parker, not too fast to put the cuffs on. What's it gonna' be? You darn well know there's a Hitch twist coming. Phyllis Thaxter, a series favorite, is quite good, and perhaps with the best role. Also look for blonde Martine Bartlett playing the neighborhood gossip. The ever popular "senior actor" Burt Mustin has a bit as a store manager. Parker shortly after this episode won the role of tv's DANIEL BOONE, and the rest is history. Thaxter's next film appearance would be in the hilarious WORLD OF HENRY ORIENT, opposite Peter Sellers.
