Twilight Zone: The Movie
Zóna soumraku
Čtyři hororové či sci-fi příběhy natočené čtyřmi slavnými režiséry, zpracované na motivy populární televizní série Roda Serlinga, navíc okořeněné vtipným prologem a epilogem. V prvním příběhu se setkáme s velkohubým byznysmanem, jenž z duše nenávidí židy, černochy i asiaty. Ten je jednoho večera nevysvětlitelným způsobem transportován zpět do roku 1940, kde je ve Francii pronásledován Nacisty. O deset let později se ocitá coby afro-američan uprostřed shromáždění Ku Klux Klanu a nakonec se objeví v šedesátých letech jako Vietnamec ve Vietnamu. Ve druhém příběhu přijíždí starý muž do domova důchodců a záhadně způsobí, že přání tamních obyvatel se stávají skutečností. Ve třetím příběhu mladá žena sveze záhadného desetiletého chlapce domů, ovšem uvízne s několika dalšími lidmi v alternativní realitě, kterou chlapec vytvořil ve své fantazii. Čtvrtý příběh sleduje cestujícího v letadle, který vidí podivné stvoření na křídle, jenž se snaží letadlo zničit. Nikdo mu však nevěří.

Although this is described as a movie, I seem to remember that each of these segments was part of a series of separate programmes broadcast in the dim and distant past. This series had the same name as this "film" and had different stories each time. The one I remember most vividly is the one where John Lithgoe, later to star in Third Rock From The Sun, was a disturbed passenger in an aircraft. During a severe thunderstorm, the aircraft was in danger of being ripped apart by a strange being outside the plane. Everybody thought John Lithgoe's character had suffered a severe mental trauma and he was restrained by the crew. See this film. It is worth it for this section alone.
The other stories are all different, but still rotate round the supernatural. One is in an old people home (expect the unexpected) and another is in a house miles from anywhere but is at the side of an American highway. Where else?
Highly recommended.
