1959. Friday nights. We time-traveled. Witnessed surprising twists. Entertained aliens. Experienced fear. And first journeyed to "The Twilight Zone" of Rod Serling's memorable TV series. And guided by four imaginative moviemakers, we traveled there again in 1983. Directors John Landis, Steven Spielberg, Joe Dante and George Miller fashion stories based on or inspired by classic episodes. Landis weaves the tale of a bigot who gets a walloping dose of his own hatred. Spielberg takes over with a fable of senior citizens offered a magical rejuvenation. Dante serves up a terror trip with a child who uses his cartoon-inspired powers to enslave his family. Then fright goes aloft with Miller's finale about a neurotic passenger who sees a monster on the jetliner's wing. Or does he?

Four legendary directors come together to pay tribute to the vision of Rod Serling with the anthology film _Twilight Zone: The Movie_. John Landis, Steven Spielberg, Joe Dante, and George Miller each direct a segment based on an original _Twilight Zone_ episode. However, these adaptations don’t really live up to the original episodes, and they don’t flow together very well. Still, they do some interesting things with the material, and there are some good performances from Burgess Meredith, Dan Aykroyd, Scatman Crothers, and John Lithgow. An entertaining homage to the classic television series, _Twilight Zone: The Movie_ delivers a few chills, but it fails to capture the same sense of the fantastical.

Like a lot of anthology films, it’s a mixed bag. The intro is decent. The only segment that was really good is the final one, Lithgow does a great job as the panicked passenger. As a whole, it didn’t capture my attention well and at times felt boring.

Made 40 years ago, but if this first segment was made today a bunch of Americans would complain about how the studios are "pandering to the woke mob" and how it's ruining America 😆
