From the tinkling avante-garde drone of the opening theme, The Twilight Zone promises a journey into the unknown. The mix of science fiction, the macabre, and O. Henry twists compel viewers to this day, and decades after Rod Serling's acclaimed CBS-TV series left the air it remains one of the great cult classics of all time. Treasures of the Twilight Zone presents a collection of rarities that were frequently excluded from the show's syndication package. The pilot episode "Where Is Everybody?" stars Earl Holliman wandering through an empty ghost town seeking someone, anyone, to break his isolation. The volatile, edgy study in racism, "The Encounter," with Neville Brand and George Takei was pulled from syndication after its initial showing. "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," the show's memorable swan song, was the only episode created outside of Serling's production company and his creative control, an award-winning short film from France by Robert Enrico. The real treasures of this Twilight Zone DVD, however, remain two of its compelling supplements. A thoughtful 1959 interview with Rod Serling (from the TV show The Mike Wallace Interview) cuts through the usual small talk to get to the business of writing for TV, from the creative process to commercial compromises and sponsor-driven censorship, and the original "pitch" film made for sponsors features Rod Serling using simple props in brilliantly inventive ways to explain his vision for the series. --Sean Axmaker

Six timeless, unforgettable masterpieces are the main attraction of this superb collection, along with a Twilight Zone promotional ad and Mike Wallace's interview with Rod Serling in 1959, at the dawn of The Twilight Zone's premier on CBS. Treasures of the Twilight Zone is comprised of classic episodes and rare footage. It begins with a film advertisement promoting sponsors, hosted by Serling.
The Twilight Zone's first episode, "Where Is Everybody?," is a timeless treasure with amazing ... Read More

Folks there's a good reason why this dvd is described as "Treasures" and not "Best of" or other similar title. The 3 episodes here are truly treasures in the sense that they are hard to find and relatively rare episodes. These are not the very best episodes in the franchise and currently you'll need to get the complete set at an incredibly exhorbitant price to get these at least until they decide to release a best of dvd for those of us who can't afford or really don't want to see every single episode ...

You may have seen these on television, but likely not very often. This is some of the better episodes - generally far better, albeit different, than many of the current offering from cable or satellite, let alone the normal networks. The transfer is good, as is the sound quality. If you enjoy this series, or if you liked the X-files, you will not go round purchashing this disc.

Just want to clear up a few historical inaccuracies in this post.
1. "Nevermind the fact that no Japanese American has ever been found guilty of treason..."
Answer: The last person convicted of treason in the United States was Tom Kawakita, a Japanese American. Kawakita, born in California, went to Japan in 1939 when he was 18 to visit his grandfather. He stayed, never renouncing his U.S. citizenship. He was employed as an interpreter with a Japanese nickel company. He was never ... Read More

As a collector who has all 43 Volumes of The Twilight Zone, I was taken back when I found out episodes: "An Occurance At Owl Creek Bridge", "The Masks" and "The Howling Man" were not included. These three together would have made Vol. 44, or in which ever sequence they could be placed. So now, I have episodes I already have included with the missing ones that should have been there to start with. However, I was told these predate the Volume series and everything's been done ramshackle, because not everyone ... Read More
