This Twilight Zone episode features Roddy McDowall and Paul Comi as the two
men on the first mission to Mars. Sad to say it is one of many stories on the big
and small screen that have become dated with the knowledge we now possess
about the red planet.
It's an optimist and a pessimist on the trip. McDowall is skeptical, but Comi says if there's life there they'll be like us because people are alike all over which is as the Deity intended.
Comi is killed in a crash landing but it's McDowall who finds out the truth of that proposition.
This is one good story and sadly one cynical view of humankind.
