Synopsis by Hal Erickson
It's an old story: A suicidal man, convinced that he is being pursued by extraterrestrials, is locked up in a mental institution specializing in such "paranoid" cases. But as a series of flashbacks reveal, mental patient Eddie Wexler (Michael O'Keefe), may have every reason on earth to be afraid. Film buffs familiar with the plot of the 1919 silent classic The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari will derive special enjoyment from this episode. "Beyond the Veil" originally aired on February 9, 1996.
