Excellent

Twilight Zone was one of those programs that people talked about fpr days at the office. It was a show I never missed, and now I can see them all again. I was afraid they wouldn't hold up well, that my recollection of them was about to be destroyed. But, no.

Art Carney is excellent as a besotted and disillusioned Santa. The theme is a little preachy and the snow looks more like soap flakes than winter precipitation. This is probably the least of the 3 episodes on the disk, but it's still pretty good. Art Carney's performance alone is worthwhile.

Agnes Moorhead is the only real character in the second episode, a lonely woman in a remote farmhouse. A spaceship crashes into her attic and she has to fight the tiny aliens with the primitive weapons at hand. The spacemen shoot her and raise blisters on her skin. She doesn't have a single word of dialogue, just moans and grunts, and it doesn't matter. This is a real classic, one that never left my mind in almost fifty years.

In the third episode, a boyish Robert Redford plays a wounded cop who falls at the doorway of a condemned building. The only occupant is an old woman who is afraid of letting Death in and suspects the wounded cop of being Death. The story is not one of the best of the series, but it is better than some.

TV never got better than Rod Serling's Twilight Zone. What more can one say?

GO Twilight Zone

The DVD arrived faster then I thought, and it came in perfect condition. The only dissapointment that I had was that the DVD only had 3 episodes on it. In any case that's 3 hours of Twilight Zone, and it was a great price too.

Left Wanting More

A forerunner of American genius in broadcasting,Twilight Zone has got to be a favorite of young and old alike using quality story lines ind acting to replace over zealous effects many are plagued with today.Although quite pleased with content I am very disappointed there were no mention as to the skimpy nature,(only 3 episodes on disk)when I anticipated season one(entirely) not critics choice of best of season.I did however learn from its included bio when my favorite was shown,it was season 3 "Little Girl Lost" and I learned that Robert Redford wrote parts of the first episode of Star Trek.Neat.
