The Twilight Zone episode you display with Burgess Meredith has always been a haunting story. Black and white movies have a strong connection with the unconscious. Edward G Robinson getting gunned down in an ancient film, expresses the horror of murder by a single bullet. The grimace on Robinson and the ghostlike gunsmoke hanging in the air is painful to experience. So much of killing in modern movies is simply grotesque.
