The Outer Limits: The Sixth Finger (1963)
Season 1, Episode 5
Fine Hour With Great Make-Up Work
26 June 2014
David McCallum plays a coal miner who wants more for himself so he gets transformed into a weird creature.

The storyline of someone is a lesser job wanting something big time is well explored. Who could not like this episode? Who could not like the creature make up? I would love to see this episode in colour!

I personally liked McCallum more in the coming episode - The Forms Of Things Unknown - as I would put that hour as McCallum's best work ever! However, The Sixth Finger is fine, but to me at least, it is not one of the best hours of the series.

Trivia: the guy inside the ape costume was also be in an ape costume in Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea/Lost In Space/Land Of The Giants.
