______________________________________________
David McCallum rocks the roll of an unhappy coal mine worker who yearns for a better life.
Edward Mulhare (Our Man Flint) has created an amazing machine which can accelerate evolution and advance a human subject's physiology by thousands of years! 
This is a brilliant "Frankenstein story", in which the scientist creates a monster who is thousands of years more advanced than his own brilliant creator! 
My only complaint is that David McCallum's "superhuman" make-up goes too far. The face becomes a comic book villain, and his large pointed ears give him an "evil elfish" look! 
But otherwise, this episode is intelligent and skillfully done. Kudos to The Outer Limits crew.
