- Mind-bending series hosted by John Newland, your guide to the unknown! Based on true, supernatural events that defy scientific explanation, this show appeals to fans of The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits.
THE BURNING GIRL: A family moves to a new town when everyone believes their daughter Alice Denning is responsible for the fires that start.
AUNTIE WAS A REAL PIECE OF WORK
Yeah! Not like Aunt Bee. . .
A bit of an Electra complex maybe?
Televisions time has come and gone. What a time it was.
@@angelabarrineau3404 It's pretty clear I think. Are you commenting on a TV or computer/phone screen?
💙💙💙💙
🎶”Time it was. And what a time it was. It was… a time of innocence.”🎶 -Paul Simon, “Bookends”. Great song. And a great episode of One Step Beyond.👍
Supposed to be replaced by something better...still waiting
The content is just so smart!! I’d much rather watch classic movies or TV shows like this as opposed to the offerings of todays networks. If you’re not interested in cop or fire department shows? Do not turn on network tv, cause that’s what ya get.
The aunt thinks she is wearing indecent clothes.. they would have a heart attack if they walked on the street now lol
Right. Some ladies wear those skin-tight dresses. They look so cheap. I compliments anyone who looks lovely and lady-like.
@@marywilliams9858 i am just 24 and i really think it looks way more cheaper than sexy. Everything is about sexual and sensual vibes these days. I wish there was a more classy trend with realistic body goals and elegance
Her Aunt was terrible. Look at the way women dress nowadays. Even show off their cleavage. Her aunt had the devil in her, not Alice. I wish I could give that aunt of hers a piece of my mind! I have three beautiful nieces and I love those girls like my own children. I never can dream of treating my 3 girls the way Alice’s aunt did. Such a shame. ☹️😡
That sis so sweet ! How old is your aunt , ? Just asking because I am an auntie,and a great auntie ,and a great great auntie, I love the fax that your spending time with your aunt ,I love to spend time with all of mine , the oldest nefue s are only two years younger than me, I'm not a REALY old auntie , I keep I touch with all evey one off them now that I've have MSG THEPAST 6 years ,was when I had to learn a iPad my youngest daughter bought me as she was leaving home ,and wanted to keep close to me , always love your aunts ,for they truely love you unconditionally! Always visit them when you can , they'll love it so very much, thank goodness I'm not like this mean Terrible aunt she'll be an old LONLY aunt if she lives that long . .❤️🙏🏽🇨🇦
@@BeautifulRadhika I'm thirteen, and one thing I don't "rebel" against is the way my mother says not to dress... too skintight, too low, or too thin. She's relaxed a whole bunch in the last few years since I was about ten, but I really don't mind it when she says to pull something farther up.
23:25 "The devil's not in *alice* Miss Denning". Notice the slight emphasis on Alice. In other words "Oh, the devil's in somebody alright lady - you."
I caught that, too.
Her😊😊😊😊
And they leave it up to us to decide that's what's great about these old shows.
Awe, all she needed was to be loved. Good story.
L💙ve Is all💙💙💙
That aunt is lucky she didn't get burned! Alice is not the evil one..
Reminds me of The Movie "Firestarter"
Story ideas get recycled in the minds of us humans.
@@dennispennington9773 No. They get plagiarized by simpletons like Steven King.
That Aunt should’ve been arrested for child abuse! Poor girl. The story reminds me of a movie called ‘Firestarter’ with Heather Locklear and Drew Barrymore from 1984. It’s also got a bit of Carrie White going on too! Excellent acting.
👏
Trivia note (of some sort): One of the actors in this---Hampton Fancher---a couple of decades later, as a screenwriter, wrote the script for the SF classic, BLADERUNNER.
I'm THRILLED to know this, thank you ❤
Alice's dad is Chief from Get Smart!
Alice is Luana Anders who played Louise Haloran from Dementia 13
And Aunt Mildred is Olive Deering who played Miriam in the movie The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston. She also did episodes of Alfred Hitchcock, Tales of Tomorrow, and an ep. of the Outer Limits.
Yes, it was Edward Platt (1916-1974).
Patti Glen+
That actor was in rebel without
A cause.
He was Ray Framdon of the
Juvenile division
I thought he looked very familiar. Thanks
Carrie. ....before Carrie
Thank you Pizzaflix for uploading this great series of shows!! It takes many of us back to another time many will never get!! Love the nostalgia!!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you. 🍕🍕🍕
The amazingly beautiful Sandra Knight, who was Patty Leland, was married to Jack Nicolson from '62-'68. And Sandra Knight was also name of the 1st Phantom Lady.
Thank you for the info👍
This show is so similiar to the book "Firestarter" by Steven King with a young girl that started fires as well as his book "Carrie" about a young woman that was an outcast, didn't fit in with her peers and had a mother that was a religious fanatic (as was the aunt to this young woman). Interesting that this show came out before King's books that have similiar main character traits.
Because he has said that this episode is where he got the idea for both. Doesn't say anything in this episode about the aunt being a religious fanatic. She's just plain evil. Maybe angry because she walks with a limp.
This series was done before the others
This one was particularly well directed by Newman. Strong performances and some nice lighting and photography (altho it would've been better to have kept the scenes in the woods much darker, especially in the "distance"/aka backdrop.) John Newland did a lot to make these shows, which were done on very very small budgets, interesting and creative within their limited means.
That Aunt has a serious problem.
Oh thank the Lord for Clip on Earings!
Sp I guess Carrie and Fire Starter had true inspirations.

There was a day and a time where the corner store shop keeper knew the first and last names of all the kids in the neighborhood 😀
I want for a community like that.
When I was a very young girl of maybe 4-5, we lived in a little neighborhood with a small grocery store on the corner literally amongst the homes and wonderful street lamps, the old gas lamp style! My great grandmother lived on the same street as us and I would get to roller skate while holding my mother’s hand to go visit her!! What a great memory at 63!
Still out there...small towns...i live in one now
This one and "The Voice" are my personal favorites. I love Luana Anders! She was a very underestimated actress, in my humble opinion.
She really gives it her all in this episode and creates tremendous empathy. She died all too soon. Very talented.
@@RSEFX yes! L💙ve Luana!💙💙
Those Are My 2 Favorites!💙💙
@@janetlieb2507 She should be FAR MORE well known. She "connected a lot of dots" between very influential, creative film makers---including herself---in those super-inventive times. And, a really wonderful, beguiling presence herself. I knew her one-time husband, and just wished I'd asked more about her. LAnders, yes!!!
@@RSEFX She Is Beguiling And A Wonderful Actress! Yes she should be more well known.Have You Seen Her In The Pit And The Pendulum?💙
Thanks for another great slice, PizzaFix, but ouch, this one's hits a little too close to home. Aunt Mildred is just like my mother, sans the alcohol (wish I had pyrokinetic power...) So glad that the program did not perpetuate ignorance, and - even if this show is only urban myth - glad that Sally found vindication from her aunt's lies, and happiness far away from her aunt's small, troubled, hard, jealous, ignorant, manipulative mind. Hope Aunt Mildred gets help.
It's not an urban myth, at least not all the stories in these series...many of these stories are actually based on true stories and real experiences of people, recorded by humans as well, with hard proof and evidence of it occuring. I'm sure including this one. It says so in the description too, you can read it there.
Carrie White- The Early Days!
I was thinking Firestarter, but Carrie is good too!
Actually Carrie had telekenisis not just fire starting, she was a much scarier grade
@@philiphamill6579 Right you are.
Yeah,1922/1964😊
@@philiphamill6579 /"R👍🏾ght 😊n✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾"!!!!!
I love these series!🤗👍🏽
1921! It’s strange to think that was almost 100 yrs ago!
@Mary Bruun It was from 1959.
2020 is the 100th anniversary of the first year of the Roaring '20s. :)
“Chief, I think we need the Cone of Silence.” Little did Edward Platt know he would someday be the chief over Maxwell Smart and Agent 99. This was a great episode. One on which many other tv shows based their plots.
They don't look 14..
Freshmen are 14 not 24!
they use mind power to look older. all the kids did it back then. it was the rage.
Does it matter
_One Step Beyond_ producers avoiding legal liability of casting actual 16 years olds, perhaps? (Child labor laws) Plus it would be less complicated to contract someone 18+ who's already registered with the Actor's Guild... A high school sophmore is 17, b.t.w., remember? You know: junior = 17, senior = 18
Thank you PizzaFix for the effort the keep a part of The Golden Years of TV alive for us dying breed who was there back in the day.
Hopefully some of the younger generation will keep those years in history and not cancelled
That is our mission. Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you 🍕
As a fireman’s daughter, I am used to more modern fire equipment! These are real antiques! Lol
You're looking at some firefighting history in this episode. I hope you're enjoying it. :)
It supposedly took place in 1921.
I’ve been watching many of these excellent shows. The actors certainly get physical with each other during scenes in this series.
I thought the same thing. Especially in one story a Father almost kills his little girl by shaking her in the first five minutes.
Another good one. I really like this series so far, thanks for sharing it with us.
06:56 "Alice, you're late."
Sorry about that, chief... missed it by that much.
Perfect!
Alice was internally combustible, and couldn't help it. Aunt Mildred was the one that was a witch. Aunt Mildred let her hair down, but when Alice did for the Halloween party, she called her a Jezebel. Alice's dad went on to be an actor, and was the chief on Get Smart.
Why does dad look like he knows nothing about roofing a house ?
The real question here is, why does your profile picture look like Jack Sparrow?
They laughed and laughed and laughed. "They're all gonna laugh at you"
I see where writers get there ideas from with fantastic old films
Denise Ashman Some call it plagiarism.
@Dr. M. H. he stole ideas from his first wife
Going back to the house that's a bloody big door
Great series, really enjoy them. Thanks for uploading.
Extra ending: the evil aunt get taken to jail for starting fire.
Kkkkkkkk
The story starts out in 1921, but those cars were definitely from the 1940's!
I noticed that. Movies and TV show have always reflected the fashions of the times in which they're made, regardless of the era the stories are set in. It's Hollywood being Hollywood.
@@patriciahayes7315 . Like M.A.S.H. The hair styles for the men were way too long for the early 1950s.
@@rockyracoon3233 They were
I've never heard of this series before - thanks for all the uploads!
another couple of good series is tales of tomorrow & the veil with Boris Karloff.
Me either wood dragon, but I like Alfred Hitchcock, twilight zone, old black and white movies
I remember watching this episode as a kid on Sunday afternoon in the mid 1970's.
so..This is where steven king got the idea of Fire starter !!!
1921? It looks rather modern in relation to that time.
Poor father. She is a strange girl.
No stranger than her evil stepmother
Wow. What fun. Discovering many episodes I’ve never seen before - thank you. I’m focusing on Luana Anders now with her expansive, diverse body of work. A favorite of Jack Nicholson I read. Before this I watched her impressive turn in The Voice episode involving possession and a beloved raccoon. Another revelation for me watching this was Olive Deering’s Aunt Mildred. Wow. I had only seen her in Caged as a dejected prisoner who hangs herself. I didn’t know she had so much power as an actress. Kudos to all!
This was so awesome one of my fave eps from this series this taking me way back thanks for the upload
The two girls remind me of Anne and Diane best bosom friends from the book by Lucy Maude Montgomery. Anne had a boy named Gilbert make fun of her red braids in school, called her carrots and in anger, she bashed a slate over his head. True love. They got married a few years later. Had about five children. Naturally happily ever after kind of story. :-)
Love the old PBS Anne of Green Gables from the 1980s Megan Follows played Anne.
Another good acting job by Luana Anders, a fine actress in her own right.
"Max! I don't believe this! You set that woman on fire!"
"Er, sorry about that, Chief. I guess I better use my shoe phone to make a call."
"To the fire department?"
"No, the insurance company." (laugh track)
"MAX!"
“She is the firestarter, the great big firestarter” (apologies to Prodigy)
I don't recall any freshman girls, in high school, looking like the blonde an brunette lassies.
I remember Geraldine Wall from episodes of Perry Mason, as well as Edward Platt from Get Smart (the Chief!). Cool :)
Thats why it was called the golden age of television.
Alice is not the only one CARRIE can start fires too .
Actually Carrie had telekenisis, not just fire starter abilities
Carrie had telekenisis not just fire starter abilities
Yes, the little girl from "Firestarter" could do it. And in one episode of "Charmed", there was a young boy who was also pyrokinetic. Carrie did start fires, but in not the way that Alice could. Carrie was telekinetic; she could intentionally short-circuit wires or make gas tanks explode. Alice, on the other hand, caused fires unconsciously and only when she was extremely upset. So there's a big difference between these two girls in their fire-starting ways.
This was so good. ILove this series, I’d never known of it before. Wonderful!❤️
"Carrie" meets "Firestarter."
More like Stephen King meets other people's work.
Mr. Stephen King seems to “borrow” a lot of story ideas for his books from this series.
Children of the corn comes from a star trek episode !
Hints of "Carrie" and "Firestarter"?
Very much so. :)
Yuppers 🙂🙂☺️🙂🐱☺️
B😊th Very Great 📽️📽️
I thought the exact same thing.
Steven King is a plagiarist!!!
It's speculation on my part of course, but maybe Stephen King had to buy the rights to use stories from _One Step Beyond,_ to avoid copyright infringement
This show is 1 month older than I am. The old man up the street says "people were a bit more nervous and kept a tighter sphincter in those days".
1921 with 1940s cars.
The burning girl looks at least 20 years old.
I have, at times, felt this haunted
waiting for agent 86 to show up and tell the chief that "he missed it by that much".
Fire in 1921....it must had been on a street from the future judging by the cars, uniforms and even the fire trucks. Anyway, who is going to notice?
16:08 I would have slugged that woman.
Ed Platt on the phone without a cone of silence! There's some really weird sexual innuendo in this one given it was a time married couples were still in separate beds on TV. Stephen King, btw, was a fan of Luana Anders, the fire starter.
NuncNuncNuncNunc weird sexual innuendo to you, maybe. Says more about you than the drama, I’d say
I noticed it too. Especially the part where Alice and the other girl walk with their armed locked and she says that she wants to be Alice's best friend. It reminded me of a lesbian scene. I'm not saying that all best friends are gay, I just noticed some subtle innuendo.
@@entityk14 I think you are wrong.
@@marywilliams9858 How am I wrong ? It's there. You're just missing it.
B Downs today’s society is so tainted everything that used to be pure is now sexualized.
The scene where she has it out with her Aunt about the clothes she was wearing to the costume party reminds me so much of the movie Carrie, when she was having it out with her mother about the clothes she was wearing to the prom. Hmmmmm
You know the aunt is also the wicked stepmother archetype!
great story.
I hate the men who are mean to their daughters. Girls always look up n love their dads... :-(
And that aunt needed some serious slapping lol..
Great series, true stories, great acting...3 Thumbs-up
Do you know that what like about old b&w episodes, the way girls &/ladies dresses to be admired, imagine today's crappy dreadful dresses of gen next. Like the night scenes shown as daylite. Lots of luv from incredible India.
Says someone who OWNS their wives that have no rights of their own.
All because you all are so insecure about yourselves.
Arranged marriages, child brides. No one wants to read your stupid comment.
This was real TV!
Obviously, the inspiration for Steven King's: "The Fire Starter", and "Carrie". The timing of the production of this episode, makes it obvious that good ol' Steven ain't quite as imaginative as we've been lead to believe.
Now, I'm going to start looking for the other stories that he plagiarized.
I should have known.
Once you start, there will be no end in your list..
Here are a couple of three.
10 o Clock people' Vs '8 clock in the morning'.
'The Night Stalker' Vs 'the Night Flier'.
'The Night Wire' vs 'the mist'
4:48 give the girl a retake for Christ's sake 😧
I think the introductory text for this video is misleading (i.e., incorrect) when it states "Based on true, supernatural events ..." That's a pretty brash assertion. I don't believe there has been proof, or compelling evidence, that the events were in fact supernatural. I hope what the author really meant was that the stories were based on actual occurrences, for which supernatural causes were claimed.
Well who did the research? It wasn't you.
Simple minds need to explain away things that they aren't mentally capable of understanding.
Now you may stand-up and take a bow Gary.
I concur with your sentiments in the main, Gary but with a qualifying proviso. And not just a matter of semantics. For those with a genuine open mind, the world as we live in physically is clearly not the only dimension that exists in the vast unknown (and ever expanding) universe. Albert Einstein said as much. Ditto Stephen Hawkins and a whole population of very erudite minds in myriad fields of scholarship. Consider but a few illustrations please : parallel universes; time travel (increasingly a very feasible concept if one accepts the time-space continuum and warping of material elements into (as yet) inexplicable entities; alien visitations and abductions and covert, very ancient civilisations that are not fully uncovered yet by archaeologists; reincarnations (proven beyond a reasonable human doubt I say); the crop circles phenomena; vile spirits inhabiting human souls (and the Christian Church's and various other religions' practice of exorcism); psychic powers and telekinesis as scientifically documented; levitation by highly spiritual individuals (again scientifically documented); black magic/practice of voodoo; - the list goes on, you get my point I trust.
Actually, the "introductory text" opens every episode and not specially "for this video" as you must surely know. Given the aforementioned unexplained and truly baffling mysteries, I venture to state that "supernatural events" should not be dismissed off-hand. Why, even the US Marines have ghostly, out-of-this-world encounters with weird happenings (Goggle for first-person accounts / narrations). And those who fought in WW2 / Vietnam War also swear by very frightening experiences.....with non-human forms.
Not to belittle your stance, but perhaps we could all be more accepting of our human knowledge limitations and ignorance. Thank you.
Sorry, the above text was penned on 6 Mar 2021. Important for future reference I feel.
They just don't make them like that anymore!!!♥️
Jesus did Stephen King get all his stories from here and TZ?
The plagiarism is overwhelmingly obvious!!
@Zoozooshi Crazy I suspect he has never had an original thought, in his useless life.
Pretty much.
It's speculation on my part of course, but maybe Stephen King had to buy the rights to use stories from _One Step Beyond,_ to avoid copyright infringement
He most likely bought the rights is absolutely correct otherwise we would of heard about the scandal it would have caused mop
The original "Fire Starter" story.
Reminds me of Fire Starter starring Drew Barrymore ...)
Same here.
I love this show as much as The Twilight Zone. It is more concentrated and consistent than the TW and it owes a great deal to John Newland who has exactly the right personality..
Pyrokinesis………...The ability to start fires with your mind.
Plagiarism....The ability to start a career with other peoples imagination.
@@parapoliticos52 brilliant comment! 😂
The "Chief" from Maxwell Smart!!!
Wow that girl could scream!
Jesus Christ. Stephen King owes the writers of this show money. "Carrie" is a TOTAL ripoff.
beautiful girl, great story
The actress who played Aunt Mildred (Olive Redding) is the sister of Alfred Ryder who played in two episodes of this series The Devils Laughter & The Forest of the Night. can definitely see the resemblance
well that's an excellent metaphor for abuse, trauma, and complex ptsd...
So old thinking but a story of a damaged child. Worse today
“I'm a firestarter, twisted firestarter starter” with Luana Anders from the classic Pit and the Pendulum

23:41 "I don't know. I don't know." Then the hypnotist goes running from the house vowing to never return.
stephen king must have forgotten he'd seen this episode.
He used this episode for his stories.
My favorite episode!💙🔥
Great episode, but now I have a The Prodigy's "Firestarter" earworm.
Sorry about that, Burning Girl.
Another good true episode.
Carrie and Fire Starter Oooooh
another screaming hysterical madam.....
Well hello there CARRIE!!😒 or are you drew Barrymore in FireStarter!!
