Cool Horror Videos: Behind the scenes of 1983’s Twilight Zone: The Movie

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

“When you think about 'The Twilight Zone,' you really only think about one thing, and that’s Rod Serling.”

While the above quote (from Joe Dante on the set of 1983's TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE) may be true for most, thanks to viewing TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE as an impressionable (and easily scared) youngster I also think about that freaky gremlin on the airplane, which led to a lifelong fear of flying. But hey, at least the film did a good job of terrifying me.

On tap for ya today we have a Cool Horror Video from Eye on Cinema who has brought us a vintage behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE.  John Landis, Steven Spielberg, Joe Dante, and George Miller each helm a segment from this classic anthology film, and this 12-minute look at the making of the flick shows the directors at work on set as well as providing a window-seat to the making of Miller's "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" segment's iconic gremlin. This is a very cool watch and makes me wanna give TWILIGHT ZONE: THE MOVIE another go soon. It's always worth revisiting.
