| My scariest one was the one about mannequins that came alive and murdered a woman. I worked in a clothing store and was creeped out when left alone after store closing. I kept hearing noises and remembering that show. LOL! And no this is NOT a late Halloween Thread. 🤣 |
Losi Nettleton sweaty in that slip awakened my young loins
You most fear “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street”This episode reminds us that the fear of thing is often worse than the thing itself. Neighbors turn on each other as a cloud of paranoia hangs over a small town.
Why would aliens waste energy invading our planet when they could just let us tear each other apart?
I vaguely remember an episode starring Buster Keaton. It was done with sound, and then when a time transfer took place, the rest of the episode was done as a silent comedy.
Time Enough at Last
(You most fear “Eye of the Beholder”)
Well no but it’s hard to be stunningly-handsome
😁😁😁😆😆😆😇😇😇
I think the U-boat commander on the ship he was sinking
But actually the submarine that sank and the sole survivor
was obsessed with getting back to his sub
I most fear “The Monsters are due on Maple Street.”

The word life in John’s writings means more than physical existence; rather, it describes the vibrant, rich quality of joyful fellowship with God—“the eternal life, which was with the Father” (1 John 1:2). Divine life transforms human life from mere existence into something more, as light transforms darkness (John 1:4-5). Through our bond with Jesus, believers in Him access that rich life—so that “our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ” (1 John 1:3). And believers’ fellowship with God also draws them into “fellowship with one another” (v. 7).
In 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in Ukraine dominated the world’s attention. As the magnitude of the catastrophe became apparent, officials scrambled to the critically essential task of containing the radiation. Lethal gamma rays from highly radioactive debris kept destroying the robots deployed to clean up the mess.
So they had to use “bio robots”—human beings! Thousands of heroic individuals became “Chernobyl liquidators,” disposing of the hazardous material in “shifts” of ninety seconds or less. People did what technology could not, at great personal risk.
Long ago, our rebellion against God introduced a catastrophe that led to all other catastrophes (see Genesis 3). Through Adam and Eve, we chose to part ways with our Creator, and we made our world a toxic mess in the process. We could never clean it up ourselves.
That’s the whole point of Christmas. The apostle John wrote of Jesus, “The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us” (1 John 1:2). Then John declared, “The blood of Jesus, [God’s] Son, purifies us from all sin” (v. 7).
Jesus has provided what His creatures could not. As we believe in Him, He restores us to a right relationship with His Father. He’s liquidated death itself. The life has appeared.
How might you be trying to clean up your own mess? How will you give your struggles to Jesus today?
Loving God, thank You for sending Your Son into this world to clean up my mess. Learn more about having a personal relationship with God.

I got “The Invaders” on the quiz.
My favorite episode is “A World Of His Own”.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0734553/


That was a classic. I’m thinkin’ they all were.
You most fear “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street.”
Never heard of that movie.
The quiz said Nightmare at 20k, but as a kid the episode with Agnes Moorehead as the old lady fighting the little men creeped me out. “the invaders”, oddly enough Roy Thinnes in The Invaders was one of my favorite shows.
“The Lonely”, where a man convicted of murder is sent to a deserted asteroid in space to serve a 50-year prison sentence. Earth sends him a female humanoid robot to keep him company. He hates the robot at first, then falls in love with it.
He gets pardoned, and forced to leave the asteroid but they won’t let him take the robot so they murder the robot against his wishes. Government is your friend!
Yes, you are just Mr. Humble. 🤣
I would love to see that sub episode again. It’s been so long.
