Rick Marianetti, Examiner.com's Culture & Events Examiner has compiled a list of the top 13 Twilight Zone episodes... You remember, Rod Sterling, don't ya? I included Rick's top 4 below but if you want all the info and all of his 13 picks, click on the SOURCE link below
| | 1. "Perchance to Dream" (November 27, 1959) Man with heart condition afraid to go to sleep complains to a psychiatrist about a recurring dream involving Maya (Suzanne Lloyd), a leopard-skin bodystocking-clad Siren he encounters at a carnival funhouse. Film-radio-television composer Van Cleeve provides a vintage Theremin score. Watching the fast-talking, Jersey-accented Conte, lit cigarette bobbing up and down between his lips, is worth the price of admission. Irresistible film-noir camp, yet still disturbing. |
| | 2. "I Shot an Arrow Into the Air" (January 15, 1960) Three astronauts are launched into space, fall off the radar screen, crash land on an asteroid. Good news/bad news: the atmophere is safe to breath, but it's hot as Death Valley outside, and there’s only five gallons of water and the patina of civilized behavior to keep them alive. |
| | 3. "The Hitch-Hiker" (January 22, 1960) An oddly menacing hitchhiker somehow stays ahead ofNan Adams (Inger Stevens) throughout her cross-country drive. |
| | 4. "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" (March 4, 1960) UFO's buzz suburban town, setting off a series of events confirming Freud's expression about the “narcissism of petty differences.” |
