Episode 173: The Watcher in the Woods (1980)

maverickEpisode 173: The second film in our "Forgotten Disney" pairings moves ahead one year to 1980 and another genre not attempted before by Disney studios, a suspense-thriller! Helmed by veteran Disney director John Hough, and starring the incredible Bette Davis, this is a ghost story, pure and simple, until it's not. The film co-stars Lynn-Holly Johnson (of "Ice Castles" fame), Kyle Richards (sister of Kim Richards who starred in the Witch Mountain films), Carroll Baker, David McCallum (yes, Illya Kuryakin from the "The Man from U.N.C.L.E. television series), and Benedict Taylor. This is a story that, admittedly, does take a little while to get rolling, but once it does it's definitely worth the wait! Plus, the trio reveal what treat they're serving for this year's Halloween episodes!
