15. Evil for Evil (1954)

An embittered man takes revenge on a beloved doctor who lost his wife on the operating table, leading to vigilantism.

The theme of friendly neighbors transformed into a hideous mob would be echoed in Twilight Zone episodes "The Shelter" and "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street."
