Rod Serling wrote the initial screenplay but it was re-written for a smaller budget after the screen tests proved how expensive the visual makeup would be. If you’re a fan of the franchise the BOOM! Visionaries graphic novel version of Serling’s original screenplay is fascinating.

Good choices, well researched. Interesting about the manga Planet of the Apes! (Also: I did not know that Rod Serling wrote that movie.) And I remember really liking the Dick Tracy comic books related to the movie; will have to check those out again.
