"His name is Warren Edgar Morley. For the past six months, he has guarded this gate from eight in the morning until six at night, at which time he is replaced by another just like himself. These are the last few moments of his life." In perhaps the most unconventionally structured of all "The Outer Limits" episodes, writer-producer Joseph Stefano creates both a macabre parable of the destructive potential of nuclear energy and a pulsating tale of terror taken to the extreme. Featuring a superbly understated performance by Ed Asner, the story begins in a top-secret research facility with a cleaning lady determined to vacuum up an innocuous ball of dust stuck in a corner. From this humble origin is spawned a most lethal monster -- an Energy Creature -- with an all-consuming appetite for human life. With its bizarre and shocking images, "It Crawled Out of the Woodwork" will have you crawling under the covers for safety. But, of course, no place is safe...in "The Outer Limits."
