Rod Serling was greatly influenced by this movie
The Twilight Zone has its roots in ths movie. Even one of the sequences, "Room for one more, honey" is purloined directly from one of the episodes. But I'm glad he did it. The Twilight Zone was an extremely competent series that enrichened the quality of television in the early 1960's and gave birth to such terrific spin-offs as The Outer Limits, Boris Karloff's Thriller Theater, and Alfred Hitchcock's Theater when such crap like 77 Sunset Strip was crapping up the airwaves.
