Dark Horse Halloween Countdown: Top 5 Twilight Zones Episodes

10/28/2010 8:23am
Casey Goodwin is generally considered to be the toughest guy at Dark Horse. Not only is he Dark Horse's Routing Coordinator (no easy feat, that) but he's also a member of Oregon Paranormal, our fine state's very own paranormal investigation team! Seriously, this guy knows his stuff. That's why we asked Casey to come up with his Top 5 Twilight Zone episodes as part of Dark Horse's Halloween Countdown! Casey, take it away.

Nightmare at 20,000 Feet
This episode has three things going for it: 1. It features the Shat in the staring role pre Captain Kirk days. 2. It plays on the fear and anxiety of flying. 3. They throw a Gremlin in the mix, which tries to take down the plane down, which in turn reinforces one’s fear of flying.

The Living Doll
Lets face it, there’s nothing creepier than a doll that talks or move by its own free will! It worked in Making Contact  and Poltergeist. This story started it all, as Christie’s mean stepfather Eric does battle with young daughter’s demonic doll named Tina. “My name is Talky Tina, and I’m going to kill you”…Poor Eric.

The Hitchhiker 
When a young woman decides to make the move west and drive cross country to California, she soon notices that she is being stalked by a hitchhiker who seems to know her every move before she makes it. She ultimately finds out that he is the ghost of a man who was killed in the same accident that claimed her.

To Serve Man
When an alien race called the Kanamits come to earth with a promise of a new era in humanity, as well as worldwide peace and prosperity for all, don’t be fooled. They have an ulterior motive. They want to eat you! 

Eye of the Beholder
This story is told from a hospital bed as a woman is eagerly awaiting the results of her 11th reconstructive surgery, all to correct her badly disfigured face. The people around her are only shown from the waist up until the final scenes, when we see their faces, we learn who really has the problems.
