@newphx I challenge you to view the opener from Season 1 of the original series and tell me it’s not all of those things, TWICE over! I am betting you won’t!
@emmaexplosions I VERY much agree! No remake of it will ever be able to touch the “shady” feel of the original in B&W. It can’t be matched, because it was done by the masters, Serling in particular.
Perhaps, but you gotta support underground and indie film makers. Our generation film makers have just started, who knows what things will be like in 20 or so years.
There are no good horror or sci-fi shows on anymore. It’s honestly sad that our generation accepts crap shows and doesn’t yurn for something of higher value like this.
The most fascinating theme ever !
@Abvance One of my favorites: “Kentucky Rye”. Or “Shatterday” with Bruce Willis.
Used to love the creepy intro when I was a kid.
By far the scariest Twilight Zone and the most intellectual.
The only good thing of this show was the intro, in particular between 00:29 and 00:30.
Aren’t they stretching the truth by saying Rod Serling created THIS Twilight Zone?
At :28, still sends a shiver down my spine.
@WackdProductions Yes it was a nice tribute to him. Subtle like he was!
I honestly like this intro the best. Too bad the episodes could never live up to it.
@caviper1
Jerry Garcia’s, actually, played by the Grateful Dead.
Recommend me some good episodes.
@tall32guy I boldly accept your challenge!! But I must say in advance, I don’t think it holds up!!

@TheBrutalDrummer Depends on who you are. To me, the openings from the original gives me the chills WAY more than this does.
This used to scare the shit out of me as a kid. STILL DOES.
the Scary Door
This piece is Jerry Goldsmith´s or Bernard Herrmann´s?
@newphx – you said it, no more to say.
Beautiful, strange, foreboding and unnerving– all in one 50 second Open. Now THAT’s talent.
They don’t make intros like this anymore because there is no Grateful Dead
this gives me the willies every freakin time!

it seems to me, i think the people in the industry today can’t create scary themes or imagine or compose music like this.
conclusion: today shows = CRAP.
