Filmed in England, this final episode of One Step Beyond is set in 1883--August 25, 1883, to be exact. While sitting at his desk in Boston, newspaperman Henry Soames thinks that he hears four explosions. Suddenly going into a trance, Soames turns out a story about the volcano island of Krakatoa--one day before its famous eruption, and 15,000 miles from where the event will take place. If one can believe the rest of this story, one will accept the neat twist at the climax. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Cowritten by future Avengers mainstay Brian Clemens, the British-filmed Crash Drive plays like an American Pat O'Brien programmer of the 1930s. Dermot Walsh stars as a race car driver who is paralyzed in an accident. Rather than accept the situation, he immerses himself in the mire of self-pity. Only the return of estranged wife Wendy Williams snaps Walsh out of his weeping and wailing. Just as Wendy Williams is not rock star Wendy O. Williams, neither is Crash Drive supporting actor Ian Fleming the same person as the novelist. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
