Yes, I vaguely remember it. The late 50s/ early 60s featured the likes of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents", "One Step Beyond", & everybody's fave "The Twilight Zone" for TV Horror/ Fantasy fare. But it wasn't called "Thriller Theater" during its original airing, rather "Thriller" (tho later in syndication, it was titled "Boris Karloff Presents Thriller".) The scariest episode of this series was said to be "The Purple Room".
I saw a few minutes of an episode called "The Hollow Watcher", involving a malevolent scarecrow. I must have been tired as heck, since I fell asleep or was told to go to bed because of some family function the next day.
This series has got to be on dvd somewhere out here. Happy hunting!

`Thanks for the reply, I was still in grade school when that was on , what made me remember it as my brother liked Combat and I like Boris Karloff and we would get into these fights over which one we were going to watch..I remember hitting him with a vacuum cleaner piece and I thought he was going to kill me.
