The Twilight Zone: Vol. 20

The Thirty-Fathom Grave
A mysterious clanging sound is heard within a submerged submarine twenty years after it was sunk by the Japanese during World War II. Is it a  sheared periscope, or the ghosts of the drowned crewmen? Chief Bell (Mike Kellin) reveals a guilty secret that has tormented him ever since that horrible event. This fourth-season episode is one-hour long (so often isn't seen in syndication). The cast includes many faces familiar to Combat! TV fans, including Simon Oakland, Bill Bixby, and Mike Kellin in a stand-out part. Also has David Shiener, John Considine, and Conlan Carter.
