A classic of TV horror, "The Horror at 37,000 Feet" shows its age but retains its entertainment value as it follows the passengers and crew of a night-time flight from London to the U.S.A. on their journey towards understanding and hopefully overcoming the supernatural forces putting their lives at risk at (you guessed it) 37,000 feet. That the small cast is itself pretty great no doubt helps. There's Chuck Connors as the pilot, William Shatner as a lapsed priest, and Tammy Grimes as a lore-dropping battleaxe, all delivering standout performances that help an evocative score and sturdy direction ratchet up the tension even as the film's effects and more overtly "horror" elements struggle to have the same impact they might have had 50 years ago. "The Horror at 37,000 Feet" is cheesy and imperfect but I still kinda loved it.
