Review of Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983) by Monsieur R — 23 Dec 2010

Generally an entertaining movie. A real tribute via Spielberg, to the genius of Rod Serling. PG, a glowing example of how PG doesn't mean boring. Get this one if you can..... 4 episodes, especially watch for the gremlin on the wing of the airplane, originally acted out by none other than Star Trek captain Kirk (William Shatner) in his early career.

Twilight Zone, the Television series, still ranks among the best television for science fiction EVER made, of course with The Fugitive, the very best drama for television EVER made, period. Of course, so many other dramas made for tv in the US would include Bonanza, Kojak, Ben Casey, etc.
