  • Per questo suo lavoro Curtis fu premiato con due Emmy Award (le nomination furono in realtà quattro): lo sceneggiato, in otto puntate ed interpretato dall'attore Robert Mitchum, costò oltre 40 milioni di dollari ed è tuttora considerato uno dei più visti di tutti i tempi (la rete televisiva ABC ha calcolato che l'ultima puntata venne vista da 140 milioni di spettatori). Un'altra serie televisiva diretta da Curtis fu quella programmata nel palinsesto pomeridiano statunitense Dark Shadows, nata originariamente nella seconda metà degli anni sessanta ma poi replicata numerose volte. Altri film e serie del terrore diretti da Curtis - e diffusi principalmente sul mercato anglosassone - sono stati: The Night Stalker, Intruders, il film The Night Strangler, House of Dark Shadows, Night of Dark Shadows, il film Ballata macabra (Burnt Offerings), la Trilogia del terrore, ed altri ancora. La morte di Curtis, sopraggiunta per un tumore al cervello da cui era affetto da tempo, nella sua casa di Brentwood, all'età di 78 anni, ha fatto seguito a quella della moglie Norma, deceduta il 7 marzo 2006 per un attacco cardiaco.
