"Twilight Zone" Episode Terrifies Even More Today Than in 1963

[Pink Freud]

The timing was exquisite.

Exactly as the Big Four news networks aired their Sunday morning news interview shows, the Heroes & Icons Network (www.handitv.com) ran a prescient prediction of 2024, starring Dennis Hopper as a pathetic little puke taken in by an empathetic mensch. It's an hour-long episode of "The Twilight Zone" that so echoes today's zeitgeist that I dare not say anymore.

Check it out yourself on www.imdb.com: Season Four, Episode Four from 1963, titled "He's Alive". Especially note the reviews on the imdb.com site for that episode. It's a shame the Sunday morning news shows couldn't run split-screen alongside it.
