Summary[edit]

In this screenshot from The Outer Limits S1E21 "The Children of Spider County," we see the eyes of the shape-shifting insectoid alien from the planet Eros glow brightly as he disintegrates the father of the protagonist's girlfriend. (The father disapproves of their union.) The screenshot comes from about 28m42s in the Amazon Freevee recording (which includes an excerpt/promo before the opening title sequence which might not be reflected in other recordings).

"The Children of Spider County" aired on 1964-02-17. On 1964-02-22, Barney Hill described under hypnosis described having been abducted by an alien with arguably similar appearance in 1961. See Jason Colavito (2014). "Alien abduction at... The Outer Limits".

Rationale[edit]

This screenshot is used as an object example of a character that played a notable part in a wider social phenomena. The image is used in only a limited number of pages and in context where it is directly relevant. The screen shot is low resolution and thus below the threshold for commercial use. Its limited use will not infringe upon the copyright holder's earnings or detract from the original image.

The image is intended to be used only on one page: Barney and Betty Hill. In both cases the image is essential to the reader's understanding as the visual elements of the contents are being discussed directly (a visual representation is essential for this). Specifically, this image is credited (see page text) with being an inspiration for the creatures reported in one of the best-known alien abduction stories.
