Best known today as humanity\'s last hope in\\xa0Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Kevin McCarthy lent his voice to a pair of\\xa0Suspense\\xa0thrillers in the later years of the program. First, he plays a juror whose wife has been kidnapped to sway his vote in "After the Movies" (AFRS rebroadcast from September 6, 1959). Then, he fights for his life in a sinking ship in "Dead Man\'s Story" (AFRS rebroadcast from May 15, 1960). Finally, we\'ll hear him in the dual role of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in a production of The CBS Radio Mystery Theatre, part of the brief revival of network radio dramas (originally aired on CBS on June 18, 1974).
