Douglas Spencer (February 10, 1910 – October 6, 1960) was a film actor. He appeared in Monkey Business (1952). Also in the western classic Shane (1953) as "Swede" and in the thriller The Glass Wall (1953). The balding, lanky actor usually appeared in films as a doctor or reporter, as he did in Them! (1954). He appeared in a number of science fiction and fantasy themed movies, including reporter Ned Scott in the horror classic The Thing from Another World (1951), in which he uttered the film's final line: "Keep watching the skies!". Spencer also had a memorable role as Martian in The Twilight Zone episode, "Mr. Dingle, the Strong", and played the role of Mr. Kraler, a protector of Anne Frank, in the 1959 movie The Diary of Anne Frank, for a total of 83 films and TV shows.
