Review of The
Merchandiser by Myra G – “In this case, the Merchandiser is a department
store decorator. It is almost Thanksgiving and Fred Dorman's job is to dress
the store for Christmas. Fred is a loner, but not by choice. He knows he's an
ugly man who has had no luck with women. He thinks it's perfectly alright to
sleep with a mannequin that he's smuggled home. The store decorations and
windows are so perfect he is sure he will get a raise. Instead, when he reaches
out to the store's pretty bookkeeper, what he gets is a domino effect as things
get hopelessly out of control. I can see this story being presented by Alfred
Hitchcock. Very well done.”
