Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Clevercell Very disappointing...
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Realrockerhalloween The twilight zone for the 80s in tone, fashion and style it was a lower quality then it's procedure, but delivered amazing stories in its own right by acclaimed writers. The opening is one of the best I've ever seen, the footage of Rod was touching and the new narrator had a pleasing voice. While the original was a morality tale each week this was good for the soul where a character chose their own date and could make the world a beautiful or ugly place. Like profile in silver where a time traveler saves JFK so he can see the good civil rights produced or a scientist who allowed a noble woman to relive a life cut to short. Very enduring with talented and likable character you want to see succeed or fail.While the first two seasons held on to the magic the movie provided it list it's way becoming a shell of it's former self. It was soon canceled and forgotten by time until the 2000s version came along to continue a magnificent idea.The Twilight zone even has a few familiar faces you'll be delighted to see John Aston, Meg Foster and a young Bruce Willis in his first acting role pre die hard.Journey into the zone again to judge it on it's own merits and not the name sale of the original. It will move you, chill you and make you laugh.
enziangenciana Rod Serling would have been so thrilled about what came out from the 80's version of "Dead Woman's Shoes" which picked up from where Rod ended. Helen Mirren contributed to most of it. This episode was used to prove how much a woman could change after getting a new pair of shoes. Her grooming was dramatically a lot more notorious than what it was before she tried them on. This version had more dimensions that the first one didn't have, such as two different appearances paired w/personalities for the same woman. Viewers couldn't tell that Helen Mirren was the same woman before and after getting her new outfit. Helen Mirren looked so much different from the time that she was at the thrift store an the time that she was walking down the stairs. The bathroom scene was the transition
Mythicalreviewer I'm glad I never watched this show when it came out.I just wondered why it lasted 4 years. It reminds me of the terrible 80's with fake people, fake clothes, and fake music. How did I ever survive growing up in this era? The acting in the majority of episodes I have watched are forced. This makes for very boring shows. The plot lines are not very interesting as the old Twilight Zone shows. The old show inspired the imagination and made one look forward to the next show. Stick with the old Twilight Zone shows and spare yourself the pain of watching garbage.
yakko_nef I remember when I saw the first commercial informing me that they were going to bring the series back. I was so happy.I watched the new series faithfully and loved almost every episode. My favorite is still Nightcrawlers which is based on the short story of the same name by Robert R. McCammon from his short story collection Blue World. Other stories in it are just as good and should be read by all fans of this episode.They also used many other great writers from which to get their material. Examples include Ray Bradbury, Stephen King, Harlan Ellison, Steven Bochco, Arthur C. Clarke and Sidney Sheldon.I would love to be able to get all the episodes of 1985 series on DVD to go with the originals.
