Added Twilight Zone episode in Live-Action TV.

Added DiffLines:

* In the original-series ''Series/TheTwilightZone'' episode "The Grave", an Old West gunfighter (played by Lee Marvin) is challenged by the people in a small town to prove he's not the coward an outlaw (who they hired him to track down, but recently executed themselves) claimed he was, by visiting the outlaw's grave at midnight, and driving a knife into the ground to prove he was there. Next morning [[spoiler: he's found lying on the grave, dead]], with the knife driven through his own cloak, pinning him to the ground -- which the townspeople speculate [[spoiler: frightened him to death when he tried to rise and was pulled back down, since the outlaw had promised to reach up from the grave to kill him]].
