Hello All,
Can anyone tell me where I can get a copy of Alfred Hitchcock's movie by the name of "The Final Escape"? Thanks for your hep help!! :)
I remember one of Alfred Hitchcocks t.v shows back in the seventies but I dont recall the nameof it I remember it was scary well I was a child then the parts I remember well is there were two brothers?or maybe cousins one of them died in a falling accident he fell onto a pitch fork and during thewake the other boy carried a box around and in it was a finger or thumb of the boy which died is there anyone that may recall this show cause I cant seem to remember it but I am positive that it was on Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Elizabeth Eagle.
I have two questions. I was a young child but I remember Mr. Hitchcock's TV series. My grandparents endulged me and allowed me to view it. There were two episodes that I remember: (1.) The gentleman that wanted to taste this "extraordiary dish." This "dish" was only made once a year and certain clientle were invited to partake. However, what the unsuspecting guest did not know--he was the entree. What was the name of that episode?
(2.) This episode involved a very stormy night in a very large house. There was a lot of interplay between the characters. But in the background the news broadcasted the escape of a murderous lunatic from a mental hospital. Very dangerous. This killer infiltrated the house disguise as a female nurse. What was the name of that episode?
I'm looking for an episode of "AH presents" (the newer
series) that was the story of a couple struggling financially
who are offered a box with a button on it from a traveling
salesman. If they push the button someone they don't
know will die, and they will receive $1 million.
Does any one know what the name of the episode is? and
how I can get it?
Thank you.

I don't believe it's an AHP show-- I think you're describing an episode of "Twilight Zone" from the '80s called "Button, Button." It was written by Richard Matheson based on one of his short stories. Check this link and see if it's the one you remember:

I've been watching the old Alfred Hitchcock Hour shows on hulu.com in recent months. I realize now that as a 5 year old kid I probably should not have been allowed to watch such "mature" subject matter. I just saw the program where a little girl and her doll trade places and I thought I was going to have a heart attack! Regardless of what anyone thinks of "Hitch", he sure was and remains the master of suspense! I just hope hulu adds more programs onto their list of available shows to watch. I've already been through most of them!

Mara Dee, thanks for the link. I've bookmarked it for when I have some extra time. I used to love those shows!
I have been looking for the movie where a little white girl changes places with her black doll that she was presented with by her dad...I think. Her mother doesn't like the doll and hides it away from the daughter. The doll and the little girl change places. Does anyone know the name of this story?
Can anyone tell me what the name of a show that has the little blue men in it. My husband told me about it and he is wanting to watch it again and we have no clue what the title is.
