The segment “The Elevator,” which appeared in a 1986 episode of the 1985 incarnation of The Twilight Zone, is from an original script by Ray Bradbury. It is one of probably only three Bradbury stories which were dramatized but never appeared in prose form. The other two are “Dial Double Zero,” which was dramatized in the special The Story of a Writer, and the TV movie Walking on Air. It Came From Outer Space also deserves a mention. It was written as a movie treatment. Several versions were collected in book form, but it was never published as a story.
Two brothers, Will, played by Stephen Geoffreys, and Roger, played by Robert Prescott, in their teens and early twenties, break into a creepy old warehouse. They are in search of their father who went missing while conducting experiments meant to feed the world. A series of increasingly bizarre discoveries lead to a gruesome revelation.
Somehow this wasn’t my favorite Bradbury thing, it was just okay but not outstanding.
