| DVD Description Twilight Zone, Vol. 22 kicks off with "A World of Difference," a memorable episode written by frequent contributor Richard Matheson. The story gives Howard Duff a rare opportunity to prove his underrated talent, playing an average businessman who arrives at his office only to discover that he's actually an actor on a soundstage. "Back There" is decidedly less effective, featuring hammy overacting by Russell Johnson (who would soon be cast as the Professor in Gilligan's Island) as a man cast backward in time to the day of Abraham Lincoln's assassination. He can't alter history, so the ending is a foregone conclusion, but the segment is noteworthy for its scoring by composer Jerry Goldsmith, then in the early stages of his stellar career. "One More Pallbearer" offers a variation on the classic episode "Time Enough at Last," combining Rod Serling's concern with nuclear warfare with a twisted tale of revenge. Joseph Wiseman (best known for playing James Bond nemesis Dr. No) plays a multimillionaire who devises a simulated nuclear attack and invites three people who wronged him (a teacher, an Army colonel, and a priest) to his bomb shelter to extort them into apologizing. The twist on this Serling-penned episode is pure TZ gold, but Wiseman is so good that his character is unintentionally sympathetic. "Ring-a-Ding Girl" is a fifth-season curio in which a Hollywood star receives an unusual ring that foresees her fateful future. Maggie McNamara is fine as a faux Audrey Hepburn, but the episode's twist is strictly routine for TZ fans. --Jeff Shannon |

Just OK In "A World of Difference", Howard Duff plays Arthur Curtis, A man who is living his normal life, and then someone says, "Cut!" and he finds out he's an actor on a set, and Arthur Curtis is the character he plays in the movie! It's the best of the lot, so get it to see this episode. In "Back There", Russel Johnson is Peter Corrigan |
