Code 3: Night of Terror (1957)
Season 1, Episode 30
6/10
Psychobabble episode leaves too many unanswered questions.

Warning: Spoilers
The lead character, Paul Martin (actor Paul Richards) is clearly out of his mind. Poor guy backed over his 3-year old child in the driveway. But did his brother-in-law set him up, and put him in the Nut House? The producers fail to answer the question.

Paul Richards puts on a decent performance, and the writers try to keep the action going (a gun fired into a flower vase, the deputies breaking into the house on the upper floor, the crazy piano playing), but the story drags a bit.

Could have been better. Of course we get lectured about all the mental patients in America, and why "we" need to do something about it (exactly what?).

Six stars for "Night of Terror"
