THE DARK SIDE OF ANDY GRIFFITH



Andy Griffith was not afraid to take chances. For instance, he risked the good will of his audience by going dark with a few of his characters. And as we already knew from "A Face In The Crowd", he was quite adept at plumbing the depths of evil in those roles......

The best known of these "Movie Of The Week" roles was in "Pray For The Wildcats", which also starred William Shatner, Robert Reed, Marjo Gortner, and Angie Dickinson.







What was inadvertently funny about the tele-flick was that they were all dressed like they were members of 'Star Trek'!

And then there was "Savages", which looks to have been a variation on the "Most Dangerous Game" trope......



That was the first part of "Savages", and the rest can be found on YouTube......
