After the death of his uncle, Graham (Leigh Lawson) inherits his Arts collection and his beloved wife Sarah (Angela Bruce) decides to keep a weird fetish and gives the name of Charlie Boy. A friend of them explains that it was a voodoo toy. When the other inheritor, Peter, calls of the idea of raising a movie production company, Graham uses a picture with five persons, including Sarah and himself, to wish Peter died. When the persons in the picture die, Graham tries to find a way to save Sarah and him.
"Charlie Boy" is a well constructed episode, but with a common and predictable voodoo story. Anyway it is a reasonable entertainment, with good direction and performances. My vote is seven.
