When people discuss the greatest episodes of the original SUSPENSE, 'The House in Cypress Canyon' invariably comes up. And for good reason- it's an unnerving slice of horror in large part because not only is there no explanation ever given, but the whole story seems to be a Mobius loop of sorts. So it's not surprising that the producers of the new SUSPENSE decided to give it a shot. And the end result is every bit as good as the original. Part of that is a bit of streamlining in the script that clarifies a few ambiguities in the original. But what really makes it work is the performance of Ron Bottitta- the subtle, understated changes in his character throughout work wonderfully here.
