A pair of Martians named Phobos and Deimos are keen to learn and understand the human act of murder, they transport to one certain incident in which a young woman turns a gun on a man.
It's definitely the most curious, perhaps the most unique episode of Thr Outer Limits that I've seen so far. I can only imagine what viewers thought of this when it first went out, it is do different to previous episodes, this one really does play for laughs, there are no scares, no jumps, no horror, it is purely a fun episode.
It put me in mind of Two X Files episodes, From Outer Space and How the ghosts stole Christmas, both are very funny, and curious within the show, but they work.
I loved the two lead characters, it was interesting to see that a potential spin off had been touted featuring them, it would have been so interesting, Barry Morse and Carroll O'Connor are great.
I get why this one may be a little divisive, if your thirst is purely for the more horror toned episodes, you may be a little frustrated, and at times it is a little repetitive, but take it for what it is, a really unique story.
Charming, 8/10.
