Summary: "Queen Of The Nile" Best Episode,"Mute" is Weird,but Good.
Review: "Queen Of The Nile" is the best episode on this 3 story set.I always loved that one."Mute" is ok,but kind of weird actually.I never understood the sheriff character being so cold,and wooden.The teacher character was very,how can I put it....a saddist.Weird,weird,weird.The Car Salesman episode was only so,so,more goofy than anything else.All in all,a skimpy disc(Only 3 skits),but Queen Of The Nile was my favorite,and for $4.99 you can't beat the price at Amazon.com.

Summary: Richard Matheson's classic episode "Mute"
Review: A classic episode from Richard Matheson stands out on Volume 28 of the DVD series of "The Twilight Zone." Used car salesman Harvey Hunnicut (Jack Carson), buys a haunted Model A that forces him to tell "The Whole Truth," written by Rod Serling. Of course, this means Harvey is never going to sell another car unless he comes up with some way of unloading this unique auto. This is one of the Zone episodes that was videotaped. Richard Matheson's classic episode "Mute" is one of the even rarer first-rate hour-long episodes, based on one of his short stories. Ann Jillian plays Ilse Nielsen, a 12-year-old girl who is raised in a telepathic community. When her parents are killed in a fire, Ilse is placed with a foster family who are appalled to find that she was never taught to speak, read or write. The element of horror in this tale is that Ilse's new community is going to make her conform, no matter what. Ann Blyth stars in "Queen of the Nile" as movie star Pamela Morris. In this script by Jerry Sohl, a young columnist named Jordan Herrick (Lee Philips), discovers that Pamela looks just as young and as beautiful as she did when she starred in the 1940 film "Queen of the Nile." Herrick uncovers her secret, which, of course, he does not live long to regret. The other two Zones are average episodes at best, but "Mute" is a real gem by a master storyteller.
