The Twilight Zone: Mr. Denton on Doomsday (1959)
Season 1, Episode 3
7/10
Speed and accuracy
25 September 2018
Dan Duryea was one of the best and underappreciated players of his time on the big and small screen. In this Twilight Zone saga he's a former top gunfighter who has fallen on bad times. Now he's a sodden alcoholic who is bullied conitnually by a young punk who gets a chance to go back to the top.

It comes in the form of satanic like itinerant peddler Malcolm Atterbury who offers him a magic potion that will for a few second return him to his old speed and accuracy.

It does but for an interesting twist and may be another intervention saves his soul and the life of another would be gunfighter Doug McClure.

Dan Duryea is one actor who is good in anything he plays and this saga of the old west from The Twilight Zone is no exception.
