Moments of Terror Bolted TV Episode Treatment Jerrold Zinnamon Playstar



Rare vintage television development treatment for “BOLTED,” a proposed story for the horror/suspense anthology series MOMENTS OF TERROR.

Written by Jerrold I. Zinnamon and prepared for Playstar Productions, Inc., the document consists of three total pages including its title page.

Unlike a complete dialogue teleplay, this is a concise story treatment outlining the proposed episode's plot.

“Bolted” concerns Ed Bentley, a boilermaker living beyond his means who becomes involved with thieves and begins stealing tools and materials from his employer. The story builds toward a dark suspense climax involving Ed entering a large industrial boiler for an inspection while other workers, unaware of his presence, prepare to close and test the boiler.

The cover identifies:

MOMENTS OF TERROR

“BOLTED”

By Jerrold I. Zinnamon

Playstar Productions, Inc.

6000 Sunset Boulevard

Hollywood 28, California

Jerrold I. Zinnamon was a professional screenwriter associated with Playstar Productions and received screenplay credit on the Playstar horror film RING OF TERROR.

Research has not located evidence that MOMENTS OF TERROR became a regularly broadcast television series. This document therefore represents an unusual surviving piece of vintage television development material from a proposed horror/suspense anthology project.

The “Hollywood 28, California” postal-zone address is consistent with the pre-ZIP-Code era.

An unusual collectible for enthusiasts of vintage television, horror and suspense anthologies, Hollywood development material, unproduced television projects and vintage scripts/treatments.
