S4YA S3E7 – The Grave – Twilight Zone

Longtime friend, first-time guest Kevin Ruiz joins the show to stab at a discussion about the classic scary tale, “The Grave” and bonus discussion on the new series! Kevin is an overall nerd who enjoys most aspects of geek culture. He’s a horror fanatic who has been searching for that thing that will scare but never finds it. He’s a guy who is overly analytical, who tries not to, but can be caught saying “Um, actually.” To reach him: * Twitter: @Solucid SHOW NOTES – The Grave Show Info Originally aired: 1961-10-27 Starring: Lee Marvin as Connie Miller Lee Van Cleef as Steinhart Elen Willard as Ione James Best as Johnny Rob Directed by: Montgomery Pittman (Yes,  5 others) Written by: Montgomery Pittman (Yes, 2 others) You, Me, and IMDB Synopses: * You: Cowboys rival gets taken down when the cowboy is away and swears vengeance * Me: A man takes a stab at bravery in the Old West * IMDB: Old West lawman Conny Miller visits the grave of a man who he failed to track down to prove he was never afraid of him but gets more than he bargained for.
