I actually remember this one being better then what I watched today. But the last time I seen this one I was in my teens. So I think it is a matter of my tastes maturing over the years. That being said... I still enjoyed the film. It does have a few laughs. So I would say it is worth the time put in to watch it.

Twilight Zone: The Movie, a review by addicted2dvd

Title: Twilight Zone: The Movie
Movie Count: 36
TV Ep Count: 15
Time Started: 5pm
Plot:
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 filmmakers, 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 a 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 flight goes aloft with Miller's finale about a neurotic passenger who sees a monster on the jetliner's wing. or does he?

My Thoughts:
I have not seen this movie in years! So I just couldn't wait to watch it again. And what makes it even more fun for me. My daughter wanted to watch it too... I got her onto the series when I first started to collect the show.

Some reason this movie seemed spookier when I was a kid.... especially the last segment... but it was a lot of fun to watch again... and was even more special this time as I did get to share it with my daughter, Brittany.... and she really loved the movie too. I had to laugh... even after all these years I remembered the introduction and when it showed the surprise at the end of the introduction Brittany near 'bout jumped out of her skin! Then she slaps me for laughing at her!... where's the justice!

Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd

Dead Zone
Based on the characters and story from the best-selling book by Stephen King, The Dead Zone is a unique psychological thriller that combines a rich mix of action, the paranormal and a continuing quest for justice.

Wheel of Fortune


My Thoughts:
The pilot of the series is much like the movie... setting up the series very well. I absolutely adore Nicole De Boer... and this is the series that I discovered her. The entire time I watched this series I always wanted her and Johnny to get back together. The ending of this episode is a fantastic cliffhanger... and now I am so wanting to continue watching the series. Great Show!

My Rating:
