Robert Powell In Thriller

Thriller is how I discovered Robert Powell, he was really incredible in it. He appeared in only two episodes, Lady Killer which was the first ever episode and Death To Sister Mary which was a little bit later on into series 3. He gave a great performance in both episodes and he was really cute, I loved the fashion in the episode, very seventies. They are two of my favourite episodes of Thriller. This was my introduction to Robert Powell and his work and I just really enjoy watching him in films and TV shows from that decade. His characters in both episodes are really creepy and very sinister. If you haven’t yet discovered him as an actor then this is where I recommend you start because it showcases his acting. Every once in a while, I go back and I watch those two episodes again because they’re just so good. The stories are really interesting and the performances are amazing and for something that came out in the seventies, it’s very entertaining, creepy and sinister and knows how to capture an audience’s attention  and it’s something for all the horror fans out there. You’ll also discover a whole range of different actors and actresses from that decade. I’d recommend this to anyone who is a bit of a horror/ thriller fanatic, it’s a brilliant series and you’ll be intrigued by some of the stories like I was. I talked about this in a different post but I did an hour long essay so this is for anyone didn’t get to read the other post.

This is the first one, it’s called Lady Killer, starring Robert Powell. It’s very good, I love it. There’s something about this episode that I love so much, maybe it’s the location of where it’s filmed, the story, the performances, everything, it’s just great and I was really enthralled by the whole thing. Robert Powell was absolutely gorgeous when he was younger and I’ve got a slight crush on him at the moment. He was just so cute. His character was absolutely crafty, demented, unhinged and mad and you kind of wanted to see what he did next.

This episode is about this American girl who is a librarian and she meets this guy {played by Robert Powell} and he tries to worm his way into her life when he finds out that she’s got money but he’s got other things in store for her. It’s very good and I loved the performances from the cast, including Robert who was fantastic.

Watch episode here

 

And Death To Sister is about this actress who plays a nun in a TV drama series who suddenly gets stalked by a mad fan{Robert Powell and suddenly everyone who is involved in the making of the show have near fatal accidents all to do with this one man. It’s very good and Robert’s character was very creepy and sinister and he gets obsessed with this actress and starts stalking her and putting everyone else around her in danger. This is a brilliant episode and I really enjoyed watching it as I watched with my family, we were both enthralled by it. It’s a great bit of television. Very mysterious and very creepy.

Watch these both when you have the time, I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.

I hope you enjoy
