YMMV / The Wild Wild West S 3 E 21 "The Night of the Undead"

• Complete Monster: Doctor Articulus is a callous, self-serving chemist. Eighteen years prior to the episode, his experiments on special mold sample resulted in multiple deaths. Following his colleagues, doctors Armbruster and Dr. Paul Eddington, alerting the authorities, Articulus missed his wedding, with his bride eventually marrying Armbruster. Retreating to the Bayou, Articulus discovered using the mold he could create a mind-control potion. Using to turn numerous people, including Armbruster, into his zombie slaves, he forced them to work nonstop refining the mold, with two goons whipping to work faster, right up until they collapsed from exhaustion, Articulus dismissing a man drowning with "many more will take his place", and with the implication his victims were fully aware the entire time. To scare off anyone who might discover his operation, Articulus staged voodoo ceremonies, one of which led to the death of John Little. Having Eddington's teenage daughter Mariah drugged, Articulus planned to forcibly marry her to right "the wrong which was done to me", then send Mariah back to murder her father. Angered by their interference, Articulus attempts to murder Jim and Artie with Ammonia gas. Defeated, he attempted to strangle Jim.
