No love for the Nightmare at 20,000 feet segment?


The gremlin in the airplane wing was horifying

I think it was the best of the segments.

That's probably the most well known segment of Twilight Zone, it gets plenty of love (and yes it is great, both versions).

or maybe not lol http://www.WorldofBong.com

I think both versions are great and it's my favorite segment from the movie. I love how John Lithgow slowly starts to lose it not just with the creature on the wing but also with the annoying people on the plane.



Cake or death? Hmmmm I choose cake please.

I liked that part.

Loved it!!! "There's a man on the wing of this plane." Hilarious!


Keep your money and your emotions separate.

The airplane gremline is the one I've always remembered from childhood in a vague unsetteling way. I just re-watched the movie and that is by far the most disturbing segment. I bet the airlines just LOVED it at the time!

That was the best segment of the movie. John Lithgow scared the ****
out of me!!! Man that was awesome!!!!

The way the story unfolds, I thought he was having paranoid delusions. I thought it was a letdown that there actually WAS a gremlin.

I had the same problem with the film "Rear Window."

Everything about that segment is so great. I watched this movie about 1000 times as a kid and could never open my eyes as the title music crescendo hits, and Lithgow opens the window shade.

They saved the best segment for last (and I even liked the third one). This one delivered the fear and intrigue of the original series.
