NIGHT GALLERY / "Phantom Of What Opera?" - 1971

Here's a short from Night Gallery, it stars Leslie Nielsen as the Phantom and Mary Ann Beck as the Beautiful Prisoner in a tale with a twist... 

It starts with The Phantom bringing his captured beauty into his underground domain as she cries out in terror.

The masked man lays her on a sofa and hints at the evil things he has in mind for her and that she is his prisoner in his lair.

Of course she's frightened to her core by the mysterious man as he rambles on about who he is and what his plans are for her.

Then, he sets the stage for some organ music for his imprisoned beauty.

He starts playing horrific music to impress on her what his intentions are, pure evil!

As he plays, the beauty slowly walks towards him.

And she pulls off his mask!

Uh-oh!..

I swear, Leslie Nielsen totally cracks me up with that smile on his face! He doesn't look that evil when you think about it.

Now she's done it, he runs over and starts choking her, and in the heat of the moment...

He pulls her hair and off it comes, along with a mask! The Phantom doesn't know what to think, he's perplexed.

And then he cowers in horror from the sight!

Oh.. My.. God!!.. What the HELL!

Then the Phantom sees that she's distraught with her looks and it hurts her so.

And what better ending, two lost souls finding comfort in their hearts! There you have it, a silly little fun episode starring our hero, Leslie Nielsen!
