Billed simply as John Moxey when he broke into TV directing at the BBC in the 1950s, Moxey gravitated to horror films and mysteries in his theatrical-film work, including several installments in the Merton Park/Edgar Wallace series. Working primarily in America since the early 1970s, where he assumed the triple-barreled cognomen of John Llewellyn Moxey, the director has kept busy with above-average TV movies, including the pilots for such series as Charlie's Angels (1976) and Blacke's Magic (1986). The most famous of all John Llewellyn Moxey projects was the ratings-busting 1971 horror classic The Night Stalker.
