"Submited for your aproval" we can find here in these vol 2 :
4 gems of the old show.
Nightmare at 20.000 feets, probably one of mst revered and beloved episodes of twilighT, and the most parodied, (in the simpsons treehouse of horror No 8, Johny Bravo, & Tiny Toons i thinks ..and of course the 80's version movie with John Lightowsegment
The others episodes are interesting for example Burgues Merdith performance in "Time enought at last", when i was child and i watched in 1983 the movie Twilight zone, I heard the dialogue between Dan Akroyd & Albert Brooks in the car about favorite episodes and this is one...
I remember when i read another review of the 1st seasen where is included originally this chapter t " The monster are due on maple street" with Claude adkins ( Aldo in planet of the apes last movie / & Sherrif Lobo).. that the aliens that appears in "monsters" were the inspiration behind Kang and the other alien from the Simpsons show.
The other episode about another nightmare with planes that have all the pasengers who travelled around time is interesting
Unfortunaly doesnt have subtittles
see Ya.

Volume #2 in the series of "Twilight Zone" DVDs is what I consider to be by far the best individual volume. It offers four classic "TZ" programs, including two of my all-time favorites -- the two airplane-related episodes ("Nightmare At 20,000 Feet" and "The Odyssey Of Flight 33").
The other two half-hour shows on this DVD are also extremely good as well -- "Time Enough At Last" and "The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street".
The picture quality is very good within the "Twilight Zone" series of DVDs. Audio is good too (in Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono). There are a minimal number of Chapter Stops included on all four programs, too (3 breaks per show), but they certainly could have placed the breaks in more appropriate spots throughout each episode. Some of the chapters begin in mid-sentence. And there's no break right after the opening credits, which would have been nice.
A "Play All" option is also provided, although it's not labelled "Play All". Selecting "Feature Presentation" from the Main Menu will play all four shows back-to-back.
No subtitles are included.
Not much in the way of extra features here. But there are some text-based "Inside The Twilight Zone" items.
Since this second volume is one of the earliest (1999) TZ discs put out by Image Entertainment, you'll have to put up with the annoying "animated eyeball" Menu design (and repetitive "Zone" music that never stops) -- but it's a minor annoyance. The quality of these four episodes overcomes the aggravating and slow-transitioning Menu system. ;)
I have enjoyed nearly all of the TZ volumes, but this "Volume 2" tops 'em all for great episode selection, IMHO. The only thing that could have possibly made this volume better would have been by adding a fifth program to the disc -- that being another William Shatner classic, "Nick Of Time". Volume 9 contains that one.

i saw one episode in school today(8th grade) and it was amazing. the episodes are scary and very well done. we saw the episode were the married couple goes on the plane and bob sees this guy/ape and the ape/guy is trying to mess up the plane ride. its awsome although i must say it is a bit scary. me and my friends loved it and im going to try to find it in stores. for those who dont know what this is then let me tell you! its about these scary and crazy stories with diffrent people in each one and they will never tell you if it acually happend. its a mystery show. you dont have to see the show, you can start any episode because there all diffrent episode!

I generally don't really like old movies. They have cheesey effects, and often the acting isn't as good.
This is an exception. I first watched a Twilight Zone episode about seven years ago with some of my family. After watching that we went to blockbuster and rented just about every one ever made
Perhaps they aren't quit as *scary* as some of these modern horror films, but they are clean, and very, very good.

THE TWILIGHT ZONE VOL. 2 includes four episodes of THE TWILIGHT ZONE, three of which are quintessential episodes of the series. "Time Enough at Last" stars Burgess Meredith as bookworm, Henry Bemis, who works at a bank. He's constantly hounded by his wife at home and by his bosses at work. All he really wants to do is spend his life reading. While in one of the underground bank vaults, a nuclear holocaust happens and Henry discovers that he's the only man to have survived the disaster. Henry wanders into a library and thinks he's in Heaven. But our ideas of Heaven often turn out to be more like Hell. "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" revolves around a supposed alien invasion that causes the quiet residents of Maple Street to begin turning on each other and their own humanity. "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" is an episode that has been rehashed and parodied on countless other shows. "Nightmare" stars William Shatner as, Bob Wilson, a salesman who has just been released from the sanitarium because of a nervous breakdown. Bob is looking forward to a relaxing flight home, despite his anxiety about flying and the turbulant thunderstorm the plane flies into. Unfortunately for Bob, he just happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and sees a gremlin trying to sabotage the planes engine. What's a former nut-case to do? The final episode on the disc is "The Odyssey of Flight 33". "Flight 33" isn't quite as memorable as the other three episodes, but it does have its moments. It revolves around a basic passenger jet that gets a boost from a quantum jet stream, pushing it through history. Overall, this is an excellent collection of THE TWILIGHT ZONE episodes that any serious fan or serious writer or filmmaker would probably be interested in owning.
