Synopsis:
When a man buys a cuckoo clock for his wife, he discovers that there is more behind the cuckoo's door than just the cuckoo.
Review by Andy Karvelis:
Who doesn't love a morality tale with a bit of a supernatural twist? If you've ever been a fan of The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits and Alfred Hitchcock presents you will enjoy Beyond the Door. Originally this was a short story from Philip K. Dick but it was adapted for the screen by P. James Norris.
When a husband buys a cuckoo clock for his wife's birthday and see's how attached she becomes to the sweet little cuckoo inside he becomes increasingly jealous. Especially when the cuckoo will only chime for his wife. Can an inanimate object really detect a person's character? This one can.
There is some stunning cinematography in this film provided by Gregory Klino, who also directed, edited and did a fantastic job of portraying the husband, Larry. His co-director was MJ Palo. Both Gregory and MJ did a great job in having it be seamless as to who was directing what. I really enjoyed how this film had an old world feel to it, much like the TV shows that inspired this film. The music composer Neil Nayyar really gave this film an incredible, very suspenseful score that fit perfectly within the genre.
