Reader Reviews
This review is from: Tales of Mystery and Suspense: Vol. 2: Radio's Outstanding Theater of Thrills (Audio CD) The catch-phrase, "Roma wine presents" or "Autolite presents" voiced over that famous and ominous theme music are recognizable to anyone who loves old radio. Radio ruled the airwaves for decades and "Suspense" was one of the finest and most popular shows ever produced. "Suspense" was truly the cream of the crop. There were well written stories given a glossy and realistic production that week after week kept listeners glued to their chairs, bent slightly forward so as not to miss even one moment of the twist ending or haunting finale. Great stars from the era were always happy to appear, as this particular collection shows. These eight gems will have you using your imagination as no television show or feature film can. Radio was a theatre of the imagination, and these eight gems will stretch the mind into shadowed corners and crimes with a twist. Each of these shows ranging in time from 1944-1949 have terrific guest stars and tense and involving stories of suspense. Stars in this fabulous edition are as follows: Alan Ladd -- Ray Milland -- Gregory Peck -- William Powell -- Pat O'Brien -- Mickey Rooney -- Jimmy Stewart For some reason, Volumes 2 (this one) and 6 are linked together. So there will be no confusion about what shows are on which volume, Volume 6 includes the following shows: Nobody Loves Me with Peter Lorre -- The House in Cypress Canyon with Robert Taylor -- The Blue Hour with Claire Trevor -- The Black Curtain with Cary Grant -- I Never Met the Dead Man with Danny Kaye. The House on Cyprus Canyon included in Volume 6 is one of the greatest episodes of "Suspense" ever heard and a must for any serious collector of radio's finest show of its kind. Star power and tense and involving stories combined to make "Suspense" one of the most enduring shows ever to rule the airwaves. A fantastic starter kit for those new to the medium or a nice addition to the radio buff's collection. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
