Compare Prices on The Twilight Zone: Vol. 4
From my teens this is one of the series that I more fondly remember. As a sci-fi fan I was attracted by “The Twilight Zone” proposal. At that time I wasn’t able to notice more than a procure of episodes, but they remain in my memory with astonishing persistence.
Thanks to the technological marvel of DVD I’m able to view these unbelievable stories again and net them as magical & belief provoking as 45 years ago.

As the structure of the episodes are mostly bounded to a surprise ending or to the argument in a very short span of time of 25 minutes each, I’ll focus my review more on outstanding features than on the topic of the episode in order not to spoil the pleasure of the viewer.
Disk 4 contains four satisfactory chapters; one of them is an exception to the usual Twilight Zone stuff.

This DVD series presentation has two gigantic advantages: it has a very top-notch label and allows buyers to settle their accepted chapters without needing to steal the whole series.

Another big addition to anyone’s TZ collection. Three of the episodes are compelling, one lacks a dinky. This is a stout opportunity to inspect Bronson in an early work that actually shows off his talent. Again, Klugman shows the uniqueness of his skills as well. This disc will not disappoint. Recommended.
