Does anyone watch this and not pause to read wikipedia
Angela FerragutoMay 15, 2020The Dante and Miller segments are good, but that doesn’t even remotely make up for the fact that something unforgivable occurred during the making of this film (I refer, of course, to Steven Spielberg’s Kick the Can). I was going to observe that the Landis segment is…
Will SloanMar 12, 2017Its really good but not quite murdering Vic Morrow and two children good.

A cursed object I've honestly been avoiding despite loving the genre-bending unpredictably and creepy, economical style of Rod Serling's original show that always managed to sneak some sort of grim civics lesson or fun and clever twist into legitimate paranormal sci-fi…
Josh LewisFeb 4, 2022“Twilight Zone: the Movie” is only disturbing in its daring to create a world where everything you once loved… is the same; just - a little bit worse. The quadruple directed and multi-segmented film doesn’t pay homage to, or even reinterpret the iconic show from which it…

Action!: The Caps Of Mr. Spielberg After directing what many consider a landmark movie in the form of ET. the Extra-Terrestrial, Spielberg was at the top of his game and though it all end up in the worst way possible, one can't blame Steven for trying out on making a…
Rafael "Mister Movie" JovineJan 12, 2025I wish Letterboxd had separate entries for the segments in Twilight Zone: The Movie because I can’t rate this higher for obvious reasons stated by just about everyone here. But if I could give “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” five stars I totally would. George Miller and John…
JesseMay 29, 2014A certain amount of give-and-take is expected from an anthology film, particularly one updating one of the great left-field anthology series, but the lopsided quality and tone of TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE is a drag. At least, it is for its first half: Landis' heavy-handed…

- Clay Werner dislikedTwilight Zone: The Movie
2.8 - this isn’t worth the time. The stories themselves are underwhelming at best. The only segment that was really decent too to bottom was the final one with Lithgow. But pair all of that with the horrifying happenings behind the scenes & this is not at all worth your time.
James New likedTwilight Zone: The MovieAs all anthologies go, not every segment is of equal quality: but they’re all enjoyable. Crazy how 4 massive directors collaborated on this one film and manage to bounce off each other so well. It’s a shame the film is massively shadowed by the tragedy of the shoot
LivinginaHC likedTwilight Zone: The MovieKind of hard to rate a movie like this. I really liked the first segment and the last segment. The segments in between were fine but maybe a bit forgettable.

Metacritic
The beauty of Twilight Zone -- The Movie is the same as the secret of the TV series: It takes ordinary people in ordinary situations and then (can you hear Rod Serling?) zaps them with next stop -- the Twilight Zone!
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
The film, which opens today at the Sutton and other theaters, is composed of a prologue, written for the movie, plus four separate stories, each of them either based directly on a script from the television series or suggested by one. A lot of money and several lives might have been saved if the producers had just rereleased the original programs.
Vincent Canby
The New York Times
The first two are total stinkers, but things pick up with Joe Dante's creepy, claustrophobic, and very funny study of a brattish kid who lives in a cartoon universe, and come slamming home with George Miller's final sketch about a paranoid airline passenger.
