Bizarro alien encounter account courtesy of The Outer Limits. Filmed in glorious black and white! A married couple go to look up some remote property so they can potentially have a getaway spot from the city. They soon find themselves on a desolate dirt road with a disabled car and an eerily silent environment. Something feels not right according to the wife. After injuring her ankle, the couple’s space is encroached on by “sentient” tumbleweeds. Some force or power is propelling the weeds to antagonize and attack the couple. The couple thinks they find a reprieve from their difficult circumstances when a local farmer comes to their rescue but he too is affected by the unseen power. Soon bullfrogs and boulders are assailing the house and the couple. We find out through the old farmer’s diary that an object was spotted hurtling through the skies and landed close to his homestead. We never see what the alien presence looks like but it appears their effort to make contact with Earthlings has been a failure.

A creepy episode from The Outer Limits. The use of very weird special effects of smarming, possessed critters and plant forms are startling at times.

Definitely worth a viewing. The original Outer Limits’ content could definitely jar your nerves!
